3./KGr.zbV 9

[Stig Jarlevik]

Good Chris

What is Lucien's present opinion?
Evidently when writing the Hors serie no 31 for LELA Presse he was still not convinced about this 'new' location.

What was AC 1 mission for the day? Would be interesting to know why they were given orders to patrol such an area in Holland, which makes no sense to me, unless of course de Scitivaux was on his own.

Also the report given by de Scitivaux is odd, refering to a three-engined aircraft looking like an Arado, which is puzzling since Arado never built any three-engined aircraft! Does the report state how de Scitivaux was wounded? If the aircraft he attacked really was a Ju 52/3m it must have been one with defensive guns (not sure how common that was in 1940) and the way I see it, it must really have been way off course. Had the combat taken place over Haag or Rotterdam, I would have understood it better, but not IJmuiden.

Cheers
