Gabszewicz GCIII/9 or GCIII/10

Sources seems to indicat he was with GCIII/9 rather than GCIII/10 when he scored his victory on June 1, 1940.

One site states the following...

"He fought there in the composition GCMP (Groupe de Chasse et de Marche Polonaise - Polish Fighter Squadron Shifting), assigned to the GC III / 9. June 1, 1940 was shot down a He-111. He took command of the front key Ga (double) and then went with him to the GC III/10, where he performed the flights until the fall of France."

another that he was here...

"Unit "Ga" commanded by Lt. Aleksander Gabszewicz (6 pilots and a few mechanics) flew on MS-406 in Bron, and then they defended Lyon flying on MB-152. On June 1st they were moved to Bernay airfield and attached to French 3/10 Squadron (MB-152)".

Which is correct?
