Re: Heinkel III IG+HL. Crashed Eire 3.3.41

Hallo Arthur,

Welcome to the forum. I, like several others including Dennis Burke, Pat Cummins and especially Tony Kearns have been researching the wartime crashes and forced landings in Ireland for many years. I recall seeing your father years ago on a programme about the war and the interned airmen.

Have you checked out the two files on this landing in the Military Archives in Dublin ? You might also as a family member be able to view his personal file there, but I would not be 100% sure.

Did your father write anything about the time he was shot down on 10 May 1940 and his subsequent capture ?

Regards for now,

Martin Gleeson.
