Re: Seeking photos of 9./LG1 Ju88 FL in France on 18.06.40

Hello,

Here are the two photos from old eBay auctions that I believe show the 9.(K)/LG1 Ju88A L1+FT, that force-landed near Cambrai, France on 21 May 1940. There are a couple of other possibilities for Ju88 losses from that unit during the WC, one of which came down near Düsseldorf, Germany. One piece of evidence that would help confirm where this crashed is whether the farm tractor was one of French manufacture, rather than German. If it is French, then we probably have the correct identification.

These were purchased last summer by someone with the eBay code 1***i. If that person, or anyone who knows who this is would contact me, I'd appreciate it. Are the power poles or houses suggestive of a country where these might have been taken?

I'm really hoping to confirm my analysis on this one, so any photos or help would be appreciated. Someone may also have photos of this Ju88 down at the original crash site, and I'd very much like to know about it if these exist.
