Hello,
I am french and sorry for my english. I find a bomber crash in the french Ardennes, near a little village call " Bulson". For this...I have not date / number / name / serial. All the crew jump in parachut, and all where ok, only one wonded at the ankle. "Bulson" is just near the border with the Belgium, it's near the town " Sedan" / "Charleville Mézières". All the crew where collected by the troup US ( 28 DI / and by the military police ) I think that this bomber is fall on wenesday afternoon ( middle september / to 31 december ). The mission was surely in germany, the crew think to be in germany...when they speak with the inhabitant just after to have jump.  I have find some pieces from this bomber.Please help me, thank you in advance.   @+ Fred
