[alain charpentier]

Hello,

I am born in Vierzon, a town just near the crash site of the Stirling, I know well the story and has been in contact with some relatives of the crew.
I have a photo of Hough, the Stirling was full of its load when it crashed, we can find still some munitions at the place !
The bomber was shot down by the flak of Vierzon, they had some 37mm guns near the river Cher.
I met the sister of Bill Shipton, and the son of Dutton who lives in Canada .
The brother of Shipton lives in Australia, and a special memorial in souvenir of the crew has been erected near Sydney !

I am Alain Charpentier, you can contact me off board at:
