Hello,
do have then an idea why the Navigator from Bad Penny Ltn. Lester Reuss was killed by civilians in Preist near Bitburg? Their was an Court Material against the german civilians (15th U.S.Army) held in Ahrweiler at the 1. June 1945. The US-War Grave Service found the remains from Ltn. Lester Reuss at the local cemetary ih Preist. And we have an crash from an B-17 near Matzen/Bitburg.
