Re: Lost B-17 on 6 september 1943
The MACR for 42-3289 gives the crash location (according to the German KU-134) as near Dettingen an der Erms, 12 km NE of Reutlingen at 1050. Reutlingen is almost due south of Stuttgart. Weiler ob Helfenstein looks on the map to be at least 45 km ESE of Stuttgart. I am not sure that 42-3289 is the correct plane.
Note: Weiler ob Helfenstein is very close to Geislingen and there is a note above that 42-30201 went down near Geislingen. However, when I looked at the MACR for 42-30201, the crash location seems to be given as Voves, France so I am not sure what to make of that.
