Re: Need info -- Obfw (later Lt.) Franz Steigleder

Andre: Accepting that War reporters often embellished in their reporting for the general public, I'm curious of your opinion on the validity of this story. My assumption would be the attack occurred either June 3rd.40 (Operation Paula), or around June 5th.40, with the opening of the second stage of the Blitz on France. I've been unable to track suitable losses for either of those date's for bf110's forcelanded, or otherwise. Have you been able to track a date on this? Cheers. Dean.
