Marc van den Berkmortel Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hello: I am interested in the crash of Wellington HE 593 at Zijtaart, near Veghel on 12 Jun 43. the pilot was Flight Sergeant Conroy, my wife's uncle. We are writing a book about him. Many thanks Hello Alex, I do some little research for www.oudzijtaart.nl Maybe you can look on our website. Click 'Kroniek', then '1943'. Read from 'Medeling van Marc van den Berkmortel op 5 april 2010.' till 'Graard van Boxmeer: Van 16 op 17 juni 1943' It's all information about Conroy's crew Burns, Densmore, Leitch and Nelson. Three of them were burned inside the plane, one was found in a ditch (I think James Burns). Last year I spoke Annie van Asseldonk-Van den Hurk. She was in 1943 a 9 year old girl and found James Burns (?) dead. Her whole story, and that of other citizens of Zijtaart is on that site. It's all in dutch, but maybe readible for you. You are especially interested in Robert Conroy. The first farmer who helped Robert Conroy to escape was Bert van Sleeuwen, brother of Johan van Sleeuwen. Kind regards, Marc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
