Crash in a little french village
Hello, I am french and a great fan of WWII airplanes. My grand father remembers that a allied plane (he thinks it was British) crashed near his village in Auvergne, France. The name of the village is Dompierre s/Besbre. The pilot survived and bailed out. Some farmers helped him hide from the Germans and link with the Resistance, He escaped into the Zone Libre, the non-occupied zone. He went to Gibraltar and then back to England. Does anyone know where (maybe an internet site) I could find what kind on plane is was, when it crashed and what the name of the pilot? My grand father and other people I asked can't remember. Thank You very much,
Leo |
