Re: Bf 109 E-1 - Yellow 8 - II./JG 27

Hello Sinisa,

There was another photo (Downloaded in October 2014) of the said machine. Here is its back. Not exactly the same writing but obviously the same meaning.
...
Nothing like that in the area except "Champagne" or "Champigneul", i.e. Champigneul-Champagne which is close to Montmort-Lucy.
...
I thought it would be very difficult for me to understand a Champagne peasant speaking French in 1940.... I just imagine for a German!..

Left that after that photo, my contacts did confirm it was Montmort-Lucy. Something like a "Gendarmerie" report I guess ...

To be followed ...

Regards, Franck.
