Re: 10 June 1940
Arnaud,
I show none of these names on any of our Luftwaffe loss entries for 10 June 1940 in the EOE Casualty DB. Could this have been on another day? Regards, |

GQM report of 8th June has pilot Oblt.Muller of 2/ZG 1 MIA on 1st June over Dunkirk. Same report has what looks like Ltn Franck pilot of 3/KG27 and crew missing Rouen area following combat with fighters on the 5th. Both reported as POW's

Re: 10 June 1940
Hi,
I have a nice photo of three German airmen in French hands, prisoners of war: “German aircraft shot down in the Dieulet forest (between Vaux-en Dieulet and La Neuville-sur-Meuse, Ardennes) by 1st R.A.C., crew captured by 14th R.T.S. in June 1940”. In this Dieulet forest (forêt de Dieulet), I know those three guys were taken prisoners by French on June the 10th: the front was there so those three guys could be army men... Do you have a Dornier 17 P (I guess) shot down in this Dieulet forest (forêt de Dieulet) in June 1940? Thank you |

Re: 10 June 1940
Hi,
three Lieutenants in one Do 17P? Bullshit. Arnaud I found many additional Do 17P and Hs 126B losses in after-action reports wrote by reconnaissance crews but they were never total losses (they were only seriously or slightly damaged) as well as I did not found any "unknown" personal losses like KIA or POW (MIA) just INJ or WIA so I think that these guys were not all officers or just from flak or signal units. Regards Robert |

Re: 10 June 1940
Robert,
Agreed and thank for your comment... That was just a question to back up or not an information I have collected in French archive which reminds intact : who could identify that "German aircraft shot down in the Dieulet forest" (between Vaux-en Dieulet and La Neuville-sur-Meuse, Ardennes)? I won't probably receive an answer, but this is just another bottle throw in sea... Yours sincerely |
