Re: 2059th AEAFFP
It more than helps - its a great bit of extra info.
I have read through the info and tried to match them to known incidents.
The first crash you list for 12th May I actually have as occuring on 20th May and this info came from Maxwell AFB records!
Another that puzzles me is the crash of the Wellington or rather the date, as the description of the crash matches that of Fleet Air Arm (Royal Navy) Wellington MP564 - but this crashed happened on 25th May 1944.
So I'm wondering whether someone wrote up the 'war diary' after the event or in the case of the first crash before it actually happened!!! It just shows how records can differ.
Lastly I'd be interested to know what type of fire trucks the 2059th used?
Once again thanks
