Re: Lt.Oyler lost 19/7/44 info sought.
Thanks very much drgondog & Henk, much appreciated.
The comment on the MACR re aircraft coming down 2km from Coutances in the sea is erroneous considering the town is approx 10km from the coast ! I just wonder if pilot baled out over land and a/c continued out to sea and crashed ? Hence the German report of a/c coming down 6km from Gouville-sur-Mer (only 2.5km from sea) and Lt.Oyler being taken POW.
I am being a bit picky because I am interested in all aircraft that came down between French coast and the Channel Islands.
Thanks again, Steve.
