According to 'Twelve days in may' the Henschel (identified by the RAF pilots as an Hs126) was shotdown by Red Section of 3 Sqn (shared between F/Lt W.M. Churchill, FO C.A.C. Stone and Sgt R.L. Wilkinson). It is reported as crashing near Diest.

A second 'Hs126' was forced down by 3 Sqn's Yellow Section and the aircrew taken prisoner.

Regards,

Steve
