Mémorial Lockheed Hudson de la RAF près de Maulusmillen (N. du Luxembourg)

Climbing out of Maulusmillen, we came across the remains of an allied aircraft and the graves of the aircrew and pasengers. Our resident historian regaled us with the story of how the plane had been shot down by “friendly” fire after an abortive mission to implant agents into Germany.
