Bombing of bridges over the Loire River - June 16, 1940

Hi,

I am looking for details about a bombing (around 2:30 pm) carried out onto Sancerre area (France) on June 16, 1940. Targets were bridges over the Loire at Sully, Pouilly and the canal at Saint-Satur (the village close to Sancerre). According to my preliminary research it seems that the involved unit was the K.G. 77 with a couple of Do17Z bombers. I seek the Staffel or Staffeln as well as details from the German side.

Best regards,
Frederic
