Spitfire force-landed High Halden June 1944

Hi guys

I have accounts from three witnesses who were at High Halden ALG in late June/early July 1944, when a Spitfire force-landed after its engine seized following the explosion of a V-1. The pilot was unhurt and the Spitfire only slightly damaged. The pilot was flown back to his base aboard an AT6 Texan (Harvard). This may have occurred on 23 June 1944.

Any ideas?

Cheers
Brian
