Yes i saw that on thw sources you quoted. Hit by what or what unit? you happen to know? Poitou seems to be hit in the turret.These three Char 1Bis tanks were destroyed at the same location on the same day. I mean the road near the Denée village. The Poitou II was hit on a field, next to the road on the right side of the Guepratte. The Souain was hit on the read on its right side while driving behind the Guepratte.

Around Denée, French tanks attack German soldiers of the 8th Infantry Division. The German artillery reacted quickly with several guns including 88 and 105mm which fired almost directly at the French tanks. The POITOU II was hit and explodes. All crew members were killed.
