P.M. Barbé shot down an He111 on 19/6/40 defending the escape of the French battleship Jean-Bart, his only claim in the war. No Moranes were in combat over the Lancastria on 17/6/40, the Hurricanes were misidentified by the Germans. The 2 incidents are sometimes confused in the historical record as is the type of German aircraft over the Lancastria. The French Navy unit AC5 or 5AC was never in operation. It was most likely proposed but the speed of events at the time meant that it never actually existed.
