Trying to ID the correct location for AF where I./ZG2 was based during early August, 1940: "St Aubin-Thiberville, France"

Hello,

In trying to pinpoint where this is, I've run into the problem of which St Aubin and which Thiberville. There are several St Aubins, but none are especially close to a Thiberville. To which airfield is this referring at which St Aubin? Perhaps the unit was also based at two different locations during this period, but I don't think that this is the case. Is Thiberville the name of an airfield location near or in one of the places named St Aubin? I./ZG2 was based there from 06.08.40 to 28.08.40, so it would have had to have been a location appropriate for Zerstörer operations during the Battle of Britain.

I'm sure that one of our French board readers will immediately know the answer to this.
