I would appreciate help for a forthcoming article. I have read accounts
that the 339th and 355th FGs claimed 11 Ju 57s destroyed, 1 probable and
6 damaged around Orleans on D-Day, 6 June 1944.
Does anyone know the Luftwaffe unit or units involved, since there
should not have been any Ju 87s anywhere near Orleans at that time.
Thanks in anticipation
Could also have ben other types of aircraft in the air or on the ground. I
have heard of Pacific pilots claiming Oscar fighters as Zeroes because they
looked similar and the Zero/Zeke was more well known.
