Re: Seeking photos/info of 92 SQ Spitfires crashed & damaged during 23.5.40 combat over France
L'association Maurice Choron has stopped her activities several years ago. Perhaps some parts of the wreck are still displayed into Calais War Museum collections This museum was a partner for the association.
Thanks for the photo of P/O Gillies. Wise62 |

And here is Learmond, not in the book mentioned by Mr Mervyn Aldridge, aka Spitfire 9. This is not in Michael Robinson's book and one which that author was unable to copy from elsewhere and re-use in "Best Of The Few".

wise62,
It would be a big help to me to know where the crash site of Gillies' Spitfire has been located. Can you provide this? Thanx, |

Re: Seeking photos/info of 92 SQ Spitfires crashed & damaged during 23.5.40 combat over France
Hi Larry
I note you are in the USA which might make this difficult, but on the Discovery Channel as broadcast by satellite in UK and Europe, there have been several repeats of a UK programme under the overall title "Time Team" devoted to archaeological digs,mostly earlier History.However, one of them was about recovering the wreckage of Klipsh's Spitfire in France, his body having been removed at the time of his death. I don't how you could get a look at it but it was fairly comprehensive. Regards Dick |
