Re: Map reference
Hello Rene,
I can't help with the exact spot but GSGS 4416 should be Austria. If there is a further reference beginning with 'M' then it is possible to narrow it down more. (M671 = 'Middle Danube) Regards, Bruce

Not Austria. This must be in the Hannover area. Rene |

Re: Map reference
I am not sure if the Middle Danube map is in the series 4416 or 4116 as this reference seems to have both references (possibly a typo in one of the numbers??).
https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.htm...ac375fcc0af8b9 I did find another map here, which seems? to be Sheet N2 in the GSGS 4416 series ( apparently the same as AMS 641). http://legacy.lib.utexas.edu/maps/am...nabruck-n2.jpg It "appears" that co-ordinates 023338 are on this map but of course, that may be just a co-incidence if this is the wrong map. Oops... I should have been on Sheet N-5 not N-2, (need more coffee this early). It looks like udf_00 (see below) has the N-5 map in the series. Last edited by RSwank; 7th February 2018 at 15:18. |

Re: Map reference
Hello and thank you all.
Yes it´s about the crew from Lancaster JA711. With help of udf00 : http://legacy.lib.utexas.edu/maps/am...schweig-n5.jpg, I found the crashsite is near Weyhausen north of the Aller-Canal and E of Gifhorn. In : http://aircrewremembered.com/ward-geoffrey.html ( an Chorley BCLosses) the crashsite is named with Weyhausen near Eschede. That´s wrong. Thank´s again and greeting, Rene Last edited by Reiner; 7th February 2018 at 19:04. |

http://digitalarchive.mcmaster.ca/is.../macrepo:21544 Bruce EDIT- if above link does not work try this: http://library.mcmaster.ca/maps/ww2/...pe_ndx100k.htm If it still doesn't work go to http://mcmaster.sirsidynix.net/uhtbin/cgisirsi/x/0/0/57/5/3?searchdata1=1022432{CKEY}&searchfield1=GENERAL^S UBJECT^GENERAL^^&user_id=WEBSERVER# ... and click on the first of the two 'URL' links where it says 'MAPS'. It is a good site but doesn't always allow access unless you go through the front door)
