Good evening Theo,
from my notes: 42-30300, 95.BG, 334.BS came down "near Schorndorf" -this is more or less the exact location you are looking for. Source is a stament of TTG John Gallaghers son, found on ArmyAirForces.com. The only a/c with no known crash location on this day is 42-30161. Hope this helps. Alexander
