Re: 371st FG - August 24, 1944 - France
Ia Orana Fred !
you can contact me at:
alain-charpentierATlive.fr
From the american report, it states that the P47 crashed just near the railway line, my father worked in 1944 in the depot of Vierzon, he was also
a keen aviation enthusiast.
He never spoke of this crash, he was living not far the marshalling yard at St martin, the end of the garden arrived on the track,and his father worked in the station, they never said that an aircraft had crashed there in august 44.
They spoke of P38, Mosquitoes, P47 strafing trains, and of course of the 1 july 44, I have some original police reports of what happened during the summer 44, and nothing about this crash.
So ...still a mystery !
For Poulaine, I shall be pleased to know more about it, I went and dig at the crash site, found pieces of a JU88.
The new owner of the site found more it seems.
So I wait your details .
From a sunny morning at Moorea ...
Alain.
