Lady Jane
# 42-107009

Last week I (Mark Hakvoort) went to the National Archive in Alkmaar. In this Archive all the local area (North Holland) historic documents are keeped (warehouse archive?).

I found a document (report) about the crash of the B17 plane Lady Jane.
The translation is this:
--------------------------------------------------------
Report about crash landing American bomber at 6 november 1944.

At Monday 6 November 1944 , around 14.00 hours, they (..) told me, that at 13.45 hours a plane crashed at field H42 at the Tussenweg (In betweenroad) farmer name R.Iwema. By car I went to the crash area. The plane was a 4 engine American bomber , type Fortress II. The plane was heavly demanged.
There where already soldiers of the German Army there, they captured 9 crew members. None of the crew members were wounded.
The crash location was already fenced (a fence around the plane) in by the Germans.
There was no damaged at the local population or buildings.
The pertrol I used was ca. 10 liter.
Wieringerwerf, 6 November 1944.
