Re: Do 17P, F6+HM shot down on 23th Nov. 1939
There are at minimum 3 picture from the crashside. One show the wereckage from the Do 17, one F/O Edgar "Cobber" Kain RNZAF, who shoot down the Do 17. Kain was the first Fighter Pilot who became an As with 5 confirmed kills, he died after an car accident(?) in June 1940.
The other pictures show Uffz. Grundling by interrogation with the Gendarmerie Nationale.
It looks like, that Uffz. Frankenberg shoot down F/O C.D. Palmer, who baled out from his stricken Hurricane L1924.
The crashplace from the Do 17 is at La Besace near Raucourt (Ardennes).
There is also an photo showing S/L P.J.H."Bull" Halahan, F/O P. Richie, F/L
P.R. Walker and Sgt. A.V. "Taffy" Clowes with an MG 15 from the Do 17(?) in front of their Quartier.
The phots must be held by "Etalissment cinematographique et photographique des Armees". I believe, that more then 3 photos excist!!
