Rinxent, in the Nord Pas- de -Calais area possibly late summer - autumn 1940.
Would anybody happen to have a date or name for this incident.
Best regs,

OK Steve, got it (I mean "Weisse 4" of 7./JG3) ...
It was captioned at Le Touquet, end 1940; nothing more I'm afraid.

As for JG3. I don't know where you got this information; for us it was just a match ... Though I don't remember exactly the original eBay caption.

Good luck! Best regards, Franck.

PS: Not THAT "secret" after all
