Re: P47 crashed at Bois des dimes /France
Memorial for Jennings:
https://www.uswarmemorials.org/html/...=440&MemID=697 It can be seen on Google Street View here: https://www.google.com/maps/@44.4239...7i13312!8i6656 https://www.google.com/maps/@44.4239...6!9m2!1b1!2i50 Regarding the location of Jennings Crash: The actual location of the Jennings crash and his Memorial Marker is: 44.423927 N, 4.994750 E The location of Jennings crash according to his MACR 8381 (link here): https://catalog.archives.gov/id/91053018 The included map shows the location to be at bJ1840 (Lambert Zone 3 map): This is East of Beaurepaire near Beaufort, at: 45.32677 N, 5.11804 E The straight line distance between the MACR (reported) crash location and the actual crash site is around 70 miles so it appears the MACR is not "quite" correct.
