Paul,

Thank you very much for your reaction. It is most interesting to hear that Congers were present in the surroundings of Overloon during the battle.
The Overloon museum archives have no records where the Conger came from. Uptil today we thought that the Conger was a gift for the museum like the Windsor, 6-pounder etc, (which arrived postwar when the museum opened) and we assumed they were never used in Overloon. But, if they were present in during the battle in Overloon, than maybe they were left behind???? This could also explain the missing rocket launcher, which is also missing on the oldest Conger picture of the Overloon museum.

Thanks Paul!
