It appears to be a No.111 Squadron, RAF machine - "JU".

The annotation on the Spitfire V indicates it was shot down on June 25 with a "English Major". This is probably Spitfire V R7259, 54 Sq., shot down on June 25,1941 with W/C John R. Kayll, Hornchurch Wing Leader. He was taken POW.

Re: Spitfire KL-E and JJ or JU?

Harder to identify the 111 Spitfire, since the serial number is too small to read. 111 Squadron didn't suffer many casualties in 1941. It could one of the 3 Spitfire IIs lost on August 19,1941.
