It could help if we got a more precise location. "Direction La Roche towards Marche " is quite misty. Was it the Ju 88 crashed in Saint-Remy wood?

[philippe1]

its max 10km from La roche
its a smallplace called HODINSTER

Hodister

[philippe1]

its a place called HODINSTER- GENES
its about 10KM from La Roche
eyewitness toldme end 44 was the crash
and it was a nightbomber due to some items that were found
a serial number was found 330887 but i don't know if this gives a clue

Another report for 26-12-44 gives the loss of Ju88 S-3 L1+EH which fell to a N/F to the west of St.Vith wn was 330807 ?
