Re: Halifax found in Poland
It may help you:
1) Local people says, that Halifax was shoot about 11pm. It makes the matter clear: it was flying to Warsaw, because it was far to early for him to be going back after a drop.
2) Some amount of money was found around the wreck during the war. It is almost sure, that it was money that had been given to crew in case of being shoot, to increase their chances of surviving on the ground.
3)Germans had established Dunaja sector in so called "bermuda triangle" - Cracow - Tarnow - Bochnia. Dunkel Nachtjagd (dark night hunt) was a method of intercepting allied bombers. Nightfighters were being guided bt ground radar sites.
Nachtjagdwaffe is my favourite aspect of WWII, so I'll be glad to help you to check, if that Halifax was shoot down by one.
