Re: GCI/4 loss on 05.06.40
15 Curtiss H-75 of GC I/4 took off at 6h30 to escort bombers over the German beachhead of Abbeville and fought fighters, claiming seven between 7h30 and 8h00 against one loss. Lt Pierre Meyzonnier was attacked by seven Bf109s and shot down and killed at Beaucamps-le-Vieux (Somme).
Source: "Ils étaient là. L'Armée de l'Air septembre 1939 - juin 1940", by Jacqueline and Paul Martin, ISBN 2-9514567-2-7 I haven't the book at hand, but a file drawn from it. It the serial number of the Curtiss was provided by the book, I would very very probably have included it in my file so I guess it is not known.
