JG11 losses - 20 August 1944

Gentlemen,
according to Ch. Shores & Ch. Thomas book 2nd TAF vol. 2 - JG11 lost 4 Fw190´s in combat with Mustangs of 19&65 squadron east of Paris (Rouvres), They mentioned in a book losses of two „Staffelkapitänen“ from JG11:

a) 11./JG11 Oblt. Herbert Christmann (6 vics) Fw 190A-8 Werk # 173064 "White 4". Cause of loss aerial combat over Dammartin-en-Goële area.

b) 4./JG11 Lt. Rudolf Schmid (11 vics) Fw 190A-8 Werk # 173059 "Green 12". Cause of loss also aerial combat over Dammartin-en-Goële area.

Can anybody helps with other two losses of JG11 that day?

TIA
Munro

Any adds,

Oblt. Christmann was Staffelkapitän of 1./J.G. 11
Lt. Schmid was Staffelführer of 4./J.G. 11 and not the Staffelkapitän
Fw. Matouschek flew the 'Green 13' and Uffz. Rasp the 'Green 9'.
