Re: Danish researchers wanted

[Bandlaw Charlie]

I'm researching a Halifax MkII crash that occured over Denmark in January 1943.

I'm looking for any Danish researchers/historians that might be able to help me...

Here's hoping someone may be able to get in touch.

Many thanks....

Charlie, one of the purposes of this forum is so that everyone learns from the research and knowledge of forum members. So, rather than a PM, I suggest posting the details here, so people can help and we all gain knowledge.

I echo John's words. Your wordings are a bit unclear as well. A crash cannot occur over anything since everything must come down somewhere.
With this i am not trying to knit pick you, but please be aware that even if something happened over Denmark, the aircraft actually may have come down within Swedish jurisdiction, either as a complete aircraft or one or more of its crew may have been located on Swedish teritory, dead or alive...
In 1943 there are nine Halifaxes with a Swedish connection....

Please post what you got and let see if we can help you.

Cheers
Stig

Hello,
and thankyou for all your replies and 'constructive' criticism....all your points have been duly noted. I appreciate that.

At this early stage, I had no intention of going into the specifics...I was merely asking if there were any Danish researchers willing to help me with a particular crash.

To be more specific, the aircraft crashed in Denmark and was shot down by a German Gun emplacement.

That much I do know.

Thank you very much for all your advice.
