Oblt. Harry Arndt + 08.06.1940 St.G 51
Hi Guys,

Does anyone have any further information regarding this loss? I believe that Arndt was killed by soldiers trying to evade capture. I have no details regarding the fate of his radio operator or indeed his name. I am searching for the aircraft details and the name of Arndt's Radio/Op. Can anyone help me further?

Kind regards,

Melvin

At this date, there was no more battles in Belgium. The German forces were attacking on the Somme river and more south to finish France.

Sadly Neuville is a very common name in France, so there are several possible places near the frontline for this date.
