Re: May 14th 1940 and few little things

Hello Petitpoucet

Yes, at least most PanzerDivs had their own Hs 126 Staffel as had at least some Corps.

And thanks again for 14 May info. Arnaud Gillet seems to have made a classical mistake. He seems to have thought that he had checked all possibilities when in fact he had not been aware on certain organizational details. One major reason why a researcher should be careful in his conclusions.

On fighting spirit of French or whoever. One must remember that the Czech and Polish exile pilots were extraordinary motivated otherwise they would not have continued their fight after their countries were overrun. So their opinions on others’ fighting spirit might be too critical. Of course they might be right I haven’t studied the subject so I don’t have any firm opinion on the question.
