B-17 loss near Forst/Lausitz in Brandenburg
Gentlemen,
I just stumbled across this article in a german newspaper, describing the discovery of what is thought to be a B-17 engine near the city of Forst (Lausitz) in Lower Lusatia, Germany: http://www.lr-online.de/regionen/for...rt1052,3518982 German and American authorities have been informed. The locals connect this finding with the mission 832 to nearby Cottbus, Ruhland and Dresden on 15 February 1945. USAAF Chronology list only one B-17 loss for this day (Which one and were?) It could have been any other earlier or later mission in the area of course. For example 11 April 1944 or 29 May 1944. Any idea which B-17 this could have been? Regards, Christian
