Re: Uffz. Karl Finke - JG 26 - KIA 8 July 1941 nr Ypres
Thanks for updates, Franek. This is one of those border cases with no direct answer. Since Finke came down just on the Belgian side of the FR/BE border, Pine's Spitfire may well have crashed across the frontier. France-crashes 39-45 has no known location either.
Giermer's report of 8 July 1941 may refer to Uffz. Albrecht Held's Bf-109 (1./JG 26), NNE of St. Omer. Leendert

Roba says Pine crashed near Courtrai. No idea of his source.
I have found that locating RAF crashes is a bit difficult. Anyway, sorting the combats of the day is possible and should allow to make some sense. Franek
