Photos for ID

All:

I recently came into possession of digital copies of photo scrapbooks from my Great Uncle (397th FS pilot Edward Dame). I thought two in particular might interest folks on this forum.

First attached photo appears to be a wrecked radar equipped Bf 110 -- am I wholly off base?

Second photo is a nice shot of a Bf 109 -- appears to me to be Black or Red 10. I can't make out any distinctive Jagdgeschwader marking near the cockpit and I don't see any recognition banding on the tail. Also, the tail is missing where I believe the W.Nr. would be.

One clue that may help with any ids -- these were likely taken in the late fall/early winter of 1944 at either Chievres, Belgium or Juvincourt, France.
