Re: Seeking photos and ultimate fate of 2./JGr152 Bf109D-1 flown by Gefr A. Hesselbach SD & POW on the German-French border near Sarreguemines on 24.0
"24 September 1939: JGr.152 Messerschmitt Bf109D-1. Shot down by Adj Dardaine of GC II/4 in combat east of Hornbach, and crashed near Betviller, east of Sarreguemines 3.40 p.m. FF Oberlt Roland Borth captured badly wounded. Aircraft a write-off. (Not in QMG nor Prien)"
Larry,
one more absurdity; near Betviller (at Rimling) came down Gefr. Adolf Hesselbach. I doubt Dardaine had something to do with the losses of JGr.152.
Maybe I can help with the aerial Luftwaffe operations on the 24th, but I have to know what is giving in French documents about the pilot or name "Olt. Borth".
Regards,
