Re: 23.11.39 Do 17P damaged by French fighters

Hi all,

that seems that be pretty hard to judge.
From KTB of stab(F)/122:
08.15 hrs takeoff of a recon plane of 2.(F)/122. Objective: photo-reconnaissance of north-east France. A/c failed to return.
Crew:
Lt. Aeckerle (BO)
Uffz. Blattmann (FF)
07.55 hrs takeoff of a recon plane of 3.(F)/122. Objective: photo-reconnaissance of north-east France. A/c failed to return.
Crew:
Ofw. Schlapp (BO)
Uff. Gruendling (FF)
08.02 hrs takeoff of a recon plane of 4.(F)/122. Objective: photo-reconnaissance of north-east France. A/c failed to return.
Crew:
Uffz. Frankenberger (FF)
Uffz. Ehlers (BO)
08.05-13.50 hrs recon mission had been flown by a/c of 4.(F)/122.
Crew:
Olt. v. Dombrowsky (BO)
Uffz. Schiefhauer
A/c had been attacked by two French fighters. Ca. 20 strikes in the plane. Belgian territory had been violated. For results see attachment nos.288 and 289.

There are also other losses from other units. I think we must check all claims that had been submitted on this day by allied units. I don`t think that the last plane could be opponent of GCII/7. What do you think?

Regards

Robert
