And a color picture of today prison on Rudului street. The second floor ( destroyed by Jose Carioca) was never rebuild. The picture was taken through back windows car. The reason is one guy escaped from the prison few days ago and not wanted to be arrested for planning escapes. Attached Image  |

As I said in one of my preview post is an estimation of aprox. 300m radius tolerance. And i didn't said i found the corect angle and distance. But the background trees are still there. |

Here is a list copied from Romanian records taken after the war that
shows 116 gravesites containing 191 sets of remains. These were( or are) in the Bolovan Cemetery in Ploesti. Only 7 were identified. I don't know if most of these were removed after the war. I would think most were. Section A: 6 coffins/10 remains (bodies) Section B: 15 coffins/44 remains Section C: 33 coffins/ 42 remains Section D: 13 coffins/32 remains Section E: 33 coffins/40 remains Section F: 16 coffins/23 remains The large area ( yellow out lined) between two rows of gravesites could be the one with unindentified americans remains burried at the first place here in august '43.
