Ju 87 shootdown over Le Havre 4 Jun 1941
Does anyone have any details (unit. crew names, what happened to them)of this shoot-down by FO D.H. 'Nobby' Clarke of 145 Squadron with a Spitfire II? This incident is mentioned in Clarke's WHAT WERE THEY LIKE TO FLY and his entry in OTHER EAGLES.

thanks,
david isby
