Thank you very much, Dave. FYI I'm researching my cousin Raymond Heron who was a Ball Turret Gunner and was KIA 25 June 1943 over Oldenburg. I was having problems cos of translation probs. Thanks.

Europe / German Newspaper Archives 1943
« on: Monday 20 January 20 21:13 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,

I'm trying to find out if there are any German newspaper archives online? I'm researching my cousins B-17F and his crew that were shot down over Munderloh, nr. Oldenburgh 25 June 1943. According to the official investigation report, dated 3 May 1946, there seems to have been a lot of local publicity regarding the crash. Hopefully the 'locals' still published?

I can't help with the car, but the registration plate is dated 1941, so the picture could not have been taken before that year.
Maybe google and look for an antique car site, or 1930s-1940s car site to narrow it down.

Thank you so much, sir.
