Re: F/O William Warfield KIA 03.12.44 Spitfire MK232.
Hello Gents,
I succeeded to find out the wreckage of Spitfire IX MK232 on the 22nd August. The dig was successful, uncovering the RR Merlin buried at 3 meters depth, under the Walloon archaeological service eyes. The National TV even made a reportage such as this one : https://www.rtbf.be/info/regions/det...es?id=10567165 The cherry on the cake was the fly-by late afternoon of the only flyable Spitfire in Belgium : SL721 adorned with the "Red Indian" such as MK232 of 421 Sqn! Pictures will follow pending time. Enjoy! ClinA-78 |
