Bluie East Two

Am looking for approach charts of the Greenland airfield Bluie East Two (BE2) - am researching facts around the crash landing off the coast of Angmagssalik of a Barkley-Grow T8P-1 aircraft, registered CF-BMV, Dec 22, 1942.
BE2 was an USAAF) airfield operational from 1942 to 1947.
So far I know that the USAAF Pilot's Handbook 'North Atlantic' didn't cover BE2 - only BW1,3,8,9
Any help or hint is welcome!

1942 - sorry, was a typo!
And by the way - the photo in the mentioned link shows a Lockheed Model 10 !
