Re: Battle of France – Evening of June 18, 1940

Hello Frederic,

Considering that the village was bombed, the responsible party would be either conventional bombers (i.e., Do-17 or He-111s) or dive bombers (i.e., Ju 87 or Hs-123s).

During the Westfeldzug the Luftwaffe fighter aircraft (i.e., Bf 109 Es) were not equipped with the bomb racks, so they could not have caused the damage as described in the local newspaper's article.

Regards,
Sinisa
