JG2 claims:06/09/43

Hello

Hugo Dahmer claim 1 B-17 "Villeneuve" 12h20
Walter Ebert claim 1 B-17 10km Sud "Villeneuve" 12h25

The "Villeneuve" being "légion" :what Villeneuve is it?

It seems that Paul Fuchs claimed two "abchusse",no mension by T.Wood.

Does anyone have any more precision? map quadrat "Gradnetz" for example?

Best Regards
Michel

10 minutes after his first combat, Ebert put a claim in at PlQ 4Ost/2955; a 9./JG 2 pilot baled out 15 km west of Troyes. I./JG 2 put claims in around Troyes so maybe this will help by a process of elimination?
