Camel N6332 was the third production Camel. It was transferred from the
RNAS (hence the N serial prefix) to the RFC on 25 May 1917 and flew with No
70 Sqn from 13 June. It was shot down near Waterdamhoek by Vizefeldwebel
Rudolf Franke of Jasta 8 on 17 July 1917; Lt W E Gossett was made PoW.
N6332 was the fourth of Franke's eventual 15 victories - he was later
commissioned, and survived the War.
