Seeking photos/info on one last LW Loss on 7 April 1940, a Ju52, during Phoney War

Hello,

One more request to complete our research for the Phoney War LW loss during April, 1940, this one also on 7 April.

"7 April 1940: Fl.Komp.Ln.Regt.Ob.d.L. Junkers Ju52/3m. Engaged over Lure by 16 Moranes of GC I/6 and GC II/7 during radio intercept mission and shot down south-east of Meurcourt, France, at 4.30 p.m. Oberlt Luitpold Deutschenbaur and eight crewmen (of III./Ln.Regt.3) killed. Aircraft 100% write-off."

I think that this is the Meurcourt in the Haute-Saône Dept:

Any help would be appreciated.
