I wonder if any one can help me please.
I am searching for any information about a Spitfire K9870 that crashed somewhere between Milton Regis and Chetney, at about 08.00 on 11th October 1940. The Spitfire was being flown by Pilot Officer Pool of 72 Squadron based at Biggin Hill when it was attacked by 109's near Deal. PO Pool bailed out injured and the Spitfire fell to earth somewhere near Milton Regis and Chetney.
I am trying to determine where the Spitfire actually crashed.If anyone has any information, from memories or news articles or mementoes I would very much like to know.NB PO Pool survived the crash, but was killed later in the war when he was once again shot down over the channel.
Thanks in advance
Jeremy
