Fokker DVII photo

Years ago In a World Book Encylopedia on World War I (I think) on the entry of
World War I there was a photo of a upside down Fokker (DVII(?)--I think one of
the allied pilots standing in the background may have been Frank Luke.
In another source I've seen Luke standing by aircraft debris of a plane he shot down. (Nearly same way of standing-if I've not mistaken)
Anyone Know what I'm talking about?

Fok.D.VII2097/18, Ltn.hans Marwede, Jasta 67.

PFFF:
I think you are taking about Uffz. Hans Heinrich Marwede, Jasta 67. He attacked and flamed a balloon from the 6th Balloon Company on 3 october 1918 at 11:30 in the morning. He was shot down be the Anti-Aircraft Battery of the 6th Balloon Co. On trying to land, he went over on his back. There are motion pictures of this event and one of the guys from this unit wrapped on the side of his head with a 45 Colt. Marwede looked rather dejected.
His Fok.D.VII(OAW)2097/18 was very quickly stripped of fabric.
Blue skies,
Dan-San
