4/7/2005 7:36:40 PM | I have been doing some research for a friend whose husband was on the "Carolina Queen" when it went down on 11 January 1944 on a mission to Oscherslaben. Is there a specific report I should ask NARA for, or another source, that would give the precise location of the crash site?
Thanks for the help.

hope this helps

Go to my site to see where to request IDPF (it's Free Takes a few months since family member you can request by e-mail send your home address with e-mail) and MACR request Maxwell AFB they will send you info also free.
