Re: Trying to locate an airfield named "Courgirause", France, listed as base for I./StG77 during mid-June, 1940
Guys, may I make another general remark.
I regularly see questions about locations that don't show up in Google Maps. It's very simple: Google Maps is OK for finding capitals, oceans and moutain ranges, but for small villages and hamlets in Europe it's not. My recommendation for locations in Western Europe: use Via Michelin. In this particular case type in Courgival and you find it directly, exactly on the location described by Larry, including all its streets and surroundings. Looking where woods, fields and streams are you can often even guess where the landing ground was. Especially for hamlets and local features these maps are great and the best you find on the Internet. For free! Regards, Pieter |
