Re: 22 Aug 44 P-47 near Tours sur Marne (nr Athis)
Nick
there was a landing ground at Pocancy - apparently it existed pre-war and was enhanced by the Luftwaffe and believed to be in use according to the AIR40 1944 airfield lists. I forgot to post the jpeg for it but can do so if you or Larry would like to see it. Of course that doesn't mean it wasn't being used as a Tac HQ or similar rather than as an airfield. Thanks to both of you for staying with what was must have seemed like an "angels dancing on a pinhead" thread which has nevertheless been really helpful to me. One last question which concerns the combat report from Obergefr Dorn I posted earlier. I looked up the rank of "Obergefr". The rank seems to be equivalent to that of a British junior NCO. To me that seems a bit junior for a pilot. Or would Dorn have produced the report for the pilot concerned? All the best. Chris |
