Hi Steve,
I think the new facts you mention came from a discussion on the Philippeville scrap yard on this forum. I also have the two entries of Peter Cornwell updated as follows:


May 17: 4./ZG76 Messerschmitt Bf110C-2 (3902). Belly-landed at Sovet emergency landing ground, west of Ciney, believed damaged in attacks by Adj Angibault of GC II/10 and Sgt Singeot of GC III/10 over Ham, south-east of Albert, 11.50 a.m. FF Ofw George Anthony and BF Uffz H. Nordmeier unhurt. Aircraft M8+DM damaged but repairable. The wreckage was later transported to Philippeville scrap yard.



May 17: 4./ZG76 Messerschmitt Bf110C-1 (2825). Forced-landed at Philippeville damaged in combat with Bloch 152s during escort sortie for He111s south-east of Albert 11.50 a.m. Possibly that attacked by Sgt Carbon of GC III/10 over Roye. FF Fw Herbert Jentsch and BF unhurt. Aircraft M8+CM 15% damaged but repairable.





Cheers, Pieter
