Where is Grevillers aerodrome is it France ? In 1941 8/KG1 was operating from their in Ju.88's any info on this group would be helpfull,also where can I get info on British radio counters measures,namely 'Meacon'. I would also like to trace Leutnant Herbert Florian who landed a Ju.88 at RAF Steeple Morden on the 16/2/1941.

Yes, Grévillers is situated a couple of miles north from Bapaume, on the southern edge of the Pas-de-Calais département in northern France.
It was also used by KG 2 if my memory serves me well.
Taxiways and runways are still there, making this site still very impressive, to my opinion, much more that many other previous WW2 Luftwaffe airfields.
