25 June 1916 Balloon claims

In reading the book Hawker VC it mentions 24 Squadron covering a balloon strafe on 25 June 1916 where 3 observation balloons were shot down. Does anyone know who claimed the balloons. CGAS has 2 Balloon observers KIA this day Ltn.d.R. Eugen Welte of FLA 2 and Vfw Thomas Auchter of an unknown FLA.
