hello Peter,
Many many thanks for your details which are most welcome, you can believe me ! It was my opinion that Uffz ERNST was a member of the crew of a two-seater (so either a Ju-87 or a Hs-126) which crashed in the village of Roquetoire on 22 May 1940. From scarce local records we had the date, but no names. I found this name by pure chance in old records in Arras (Pas-de-Calais) and thought it might account for the crash in Roquetoire. Location was roughly given as Helfaut (famous later for the V2 site) which is about 10 km to the west. Roquetoire indeed is south-east of Arques. If you have any other information, I'd be very glad to hear about it. Many thanks again as it is more that I ever found on this case. Cheers from France and happy new year !
