Your are wellcome Mabadescu. Also I thank you for given such important detail ( crash location) and how the simple romanian people (like your grand mother) were helping wounded US airmen to heal their burns.


Dan.



PS: I can sent you the MACR for "Nudist Kay" if you PM your e-mail adress.

The crash was about 1 km south south/east of Talpa Postei, between Talpa Postei and Talpa Bascoveni. Hope this helps.



Could you help me to indentify on the map the village Talpa Bascoveni and ask your father how far away is from Epuresti (pinpoint on the below old map)

Here you go Dan. A general map of the area. As you see it is 45 km west Epuresti. It's in Teleorman, not Giurgiu county

Thanks Victor.

In 1944 Epuresti and Talpa Bascoveni were both in Vlasca county.
Today old Vlasca county is split in two : Teleorman and Giurgiu county.
