Re: September 23,1940 picture?

Dennis Knight in his book 'Harvest of Messerschmitts' has the same photo on page 139, stating that two pilots of 72 Sqdn. followed the Messerschmitt 109 down, and that Dilthey was rescued from the sea by two Army officers who swam out to rescue him and help him into a fishing boat. Date is correct also.
