[Peter Steer]

Hello Laurent,

The account I have is in writing from the navigator. I am very pleased to hear he is still alive. I have so many questions.

His account was forwarded to a friend of mine who works with a relative of the pilot, who I believe passed away in 1989.

My friend forwarded it to me knowing of my interest in such matters. If you are in touch with the families I am suprised you have not seen it. It is a 10 page written account. I would not want to forward it further myself without Flt Sgt Gillam's consent. The pilot was wounded in the arm by the attack but suffered a broken leg falling from a tree when landing by parachute.

According to the account the plane went down in a field near the village, wreckage scattered over a large area. Flt Sgt Gillam took most of his boots with him!

Any news on the Heinkel?

Regards

Peter Steer
