Re: Unknown crash site
Agree,
Geoffrey 's excerpt from the Squadron history is almost exactly what can be found in page 4 of the macr. Page 2 of the 4 page MACR does have the 26 March 1945 in the Date: space. And it follows that as described, the Map co-ordinates are given the wrong global position re East/North which is an understandable error. The correct being 47°10' N by 11°25'E. So just where would that be ? Target given as just Munich. Final map ref puts the aircraft almost directly south over the Wipptal/Schonberg-Stubaital area of Austria. Also I am interested to discover what the number 2467 represents at the top of page 2, and the number 1879 at the bottom of pages 2,3 and 4 ? For general interest two P-51D' from the 319 Sqdn,325 Fighter Group were also lost in the same area (Langenloia) on the 26 th. They were Pilot: Robert R, CAUDILL ,POW. P-51D -15 44-15679, "75". AND Vernon B, KRHL, KIA. P51D-15 44-15449, " Baby Doll". Alex Last edited by Alex Smart; 9th February 2024 at 01:05. |
