Potez 63-11 of GAO 517
Hi
Potez 63-11 N°327 (GAO 517) shot down the 03/06/1940 (region of Montmirail) or the 04/06/1940 ??? French sources are contradictory to each other Thanks Michel |

As CJE wrote the correct date for this loss is 4 june 1940. Caujolles/Collomb/Fonvielle shot down after 35' of flight. Caujolles WIA on 4/6 died on 8 june 1940 HTH Bertrand Last edited by Bertrand H; 19th September 2018 at 11:02. |

Re: Potez 63-11 of GAO 517
Hi guys
It seems a bit more complex. According the site "39-45.auzeau.fr":Maurice Marcel Fonvielle (gunner)...shot down on 03/06/1940... who died on 04/06/1940 (Anisy-le-chateau) after being wounded. Who to believe? Michel |

I think you must believe what I wrote ; info comes from archives of GAO 507...

Michel
I believe you can trust both Chris and Bertrand in this case. An individual in France, Paul Martin, has spent a lifetime researching this period and he also states very clearly, that this Potez was shot down on the 4th, NOT the 3rd B Rgds Stig |
