ID of crew in field grave 1940 WC?
Hello,
Does anyone have any information that would help ID this wrecksite and field grave, probably from the Western Campaign of May-June, 1940. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...OIBUAA:US:1123 Any help with this one would be appreciated. Perhaps there have been other photos of this grave on eBay? Thanx, |

Re: ID of crew in field grave 1940 WC?
Would there be a field burial in September?
I would have thought in an occupied country in September, the bodies would have been recovered and buried formerly. I have only seen these field burials during operations or advance/retreats - mainly in WC and also North Africa. Besides that, can't help. Metal prop - DB601? - 2/3 crew - Bf110? regards Mark |
