Seeking info/photos on two Bf109 Phoney War crashes in France on 20.4.40
Hello,
Following up further on the Phoney War/Sitzkrieg LW Losses on French soil, I'm seeing photos, eyewitness reports, etc. of these two incidents.
"20 April 1940: "20 April 1940: 7./JG53 Messerschmitt Bf109E-1. Shot down by F/L Walker of No.1 Squadron in combat south-east of Diedenhofen and crashed at Kédange-sur-Canner, 15 km south-east of Thionville 12.30 p.m. (Ff) Lt Fritz Sievers killed. Aircraft 100% write-off."
20 April 1940: 2./JG54 Messerschmitt Bf109E-3. Shot down by Sgt Boillot of GC II/7 in combat north-east of Belfort and exploded east of Lachapelle-sous-Chaux 6.55 a.m. (Ff) Lt Helmuth Hoch killed. Aircraft 100% write-off."
Can anyone help?
