Re: Skeleton of Flyer found in New Guinea

Hello,

Some years ago, investigating on some site of crash in France, an old man told me that in the winter of 1946 or 1947, he was working as forestry worker and as they cut down a tree, some part of a squeleton fell with the tree.
The squeleton had still some harness on it.
The workers kept this for them and buried what was left of the body.
I think that certainly many airmen still missing were lost hanged in big trees or fell on it and stayed there for some time in forest .

Alain.
