And from
my account of Operation Dragoon (which is desperately in need of an update):
"[On 15 August 1944] Damage to Valence aerodrome further inhibited the bomber force and Fl.Div. 2 was informed that three KG 26 illuminators had landed as far afield as Strasbourg-Enzheim and Freiburg owing to the unserviceability of airfields to which they had been transferred pending repairs to Valence …
[On the 17th] Photographs taken by the Allies of Valence-La Trésorerie suggested that "several Ju 88s" had been destroyed by bombing."
There's a lot of other references too.
