belly landing near Vimy, May 18th 1940

Hi all,

He 111 B3+JT of 9./KG54 made a belly landing on May 18th 1940 N of Vimy in a field near the "Bois de l’Emprunt". The crew was killed by French troops.

I'm trying to locate this Emprunt forest without any luck. Does anyone have an idea where this forest is located?
