ID of Black 7 of 2.(J)/LG2 during the Western Campaign
Hello,
Today on eBay a photo of "Black 7" was auctioned. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=350209639623 This and other photos of the FL have appeared previously. However, this one has a handwritten caption on the back indicating that this was taken near Péronne, France, and is almost certainly during the Western Campaign of 1940, probably during the latter part of May, 1940. With this location in mind, which is about 28 miles E of Amiens and about 17 miles WNW of San Quentin, can anyone help identify which loss this represents on the Luftwaffe loss records lists? Could this be the 2. Staffel loss with Lt. Strakeljahn a POW on May 19th? He went down after combat with a Morane 406 in the vicinity of Compiégne. Does anyone have any information on this one? Thanks in advance for any help with this one.
