4/ZG76 a/casualties 17.5.40.

Hi on the 17.5.40 4/ZG76 reported two Bf110C a/c damaged following combat
south - east of Albert around 11.50hrs.
One of these is believed to be coded M8+DM with two crew not named unhurt,
where the other one is bel. to be the a/c of Ofw.Georg Anthony with no code listed. Source The Battle of France Then and Now Peter Cornwell pg.309.

Since I got this great book I have found some notes describing a loss on 17.5.40 listing a Bf110C M8+CM W.Nr.2825 as belly landed. I have a name with a question mark against it with the name Jentsch? I wonder if this is Obgef.
Herbert Jentsch who was captured on 16.8.40 with Marchfelder when flying now with the StabII/ZG76. Unfortunately I didn't record the source of this on the notes!
From an online search I believe Jentsch's flugbuch survives so I'd be grateful if anybody could confirm his a/c as being M8+CM on 17.5.40.

Best regs,
Steve.
