Some more elements confirm the village of Baigneaux rather than Boirville. The Flak batteries which defended the western part of the Chateaudun base runwyas were at Lutz en Dunois, Moirville and Boiville. Lutz en Dunois was heavily occupied . The roof of the church had been taken off for the installation of a Flak battery in the tower. Moirville had another battery and Boirville had three (two 88 and probably a smaller one, I have to check that out). Everyday the Germans would commute from Lutz to Boiville for maintenance. They also had a soccer field for crews who relaxed and the houses were billeted. Therefore I doubt that the resistance had a hiding place in those two villages. The other possibility being Baigneaux. I will therfore focuss on this place. I am getting closer.
