Re: Has anyone ever found aerial photos or a map of these airfields ?
Oquaig -
Here are a couple of them.................I think you will find some or all of the others, too, but you will have to search through my listings for Luftwaffe Airfields in Poland and my list for Russia and Ukraine. Good Luck! P.S. as for the name of the villages where the aircrew slept, if recorded, it would only be found in unit KTB'er and in the records of the German Ortskommandantur for those villages. L. deZ. Rogozniczka (POL) (a.k.a. Rogoznica, Rogoźnica) (52 01 50 N – 22 52 10 E) General: landing ground (Landeplatz) in C Poland (E Poland today) 44 km ESE of Siedlce,19 km W of Biala Podlaska and 8 km NE of Miedzyrzec Podlaski.
