He111 shot down by No 1 Squadron, 03/03/1940.
Good morning,

On the 3rd of march 1939, soon after 12H00, No 1 Squadron F/O M H Brown ( L1843 ) and Sgt F J Soper ( L1679 ) claimed an He111 shot down some distance south of Forbach ( AIR 50/1 p 18, p 188 ). The Heinkel force-landed in the no-man’ s land and Soper saw a crew member set fire to the bomber.

Does anyone know about the identity of this Heinkel and the fate of the crew ?

Thanks a lot.

Bernard.
