    The question notes he was with 599th BS - per Wikipedia, they were based at Dreux/Vernouillet airfield (A41) from mid September to early October 1944. So it seems very likely that we also have an approximate date for the photo to go with the ID. Commented May 20, 2020 at 16:34

    @BobJarvis-ReinstateMonica it's even closer than I realised! Just an hour's walk from the airfield to the church. Commented May 21, 2020 at 17:48
