Consumption of J2 fuel at Coulommiers, France in August 1944?
Good afternoon,
This ULTRA message is XL7636, REF. CX/MSS/T285/45, transmitted at 23 2024z/8/44, and can be found in DEFE 3 124, p. 138 on the National Archives web site: "ITEM-TWO FUEL AT (FAIR INDICATIONS COULOMMIERS £ COULOMMIERS) COLON ON TWENTY FIRST)) CONSUMED TWO POINT FIVE TONS. ON TWENTY SECOND RECEIVED TWO EIGHT TONS, STOCKS EIGHT TWO TONS (COMMENT. ITEM-TWO FUEL USED BY ME £ ME TWO SIX TWO. FOR COULOMMIERS £ COULOMMIERS AS BASE AIRFIELD IN THIS CONNECTION SEE XL £ XL FIVE EIGHT TWO ONE)" See ULTRA message XL7842 in DEFE 3 125, p. 196 for the order: "ON TWENTY THIRD TRANSPORT AWAY FROM COULOMMIERS £ COULOMMIERS STOCKS OF JIG TWO..." Is there any other evidence that Ar 234s or Me 262s actually used Coulommiers as a base on or before 21 August 1944? or is there some other explanation? Best regards, Jim |
