Hi
The only problem is that only two Camels were lost that day, D1902 of No. 70 Sqn. and B7250 of 209 Sqn. The latter is a possible claim by Ltn. Frohns/Flg. Heidmeir of FAA238. The former is a possible claim by Eisenmenger/Gund, but also a possible claim by AA fire. (data from 'The Sky Their Battlefield II' by Trevor Henshaw)
