JG 27 battle over Pantelleria question

Hello All,

I'm researching the fighting over the Pantelleria area on June 10, 1943, and am trying to figure out exactly how many II/JG 27 Bf-109s were shot down.

I have Prien's unit history of II/JG 27 that says 12.

I have an Osprey unit history of JG 27 that says 10.

I've read a post on here that says 11.

Does anyone by chance know which is correct?

Any help or guidance you could provide would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Bryan

12 should be correct: 10883, 19686, 15039, 15071, 16633, 16420, 19571, 15041, 15120, 16217, 18022 and 18122.

Thanks Matti!

Have you ever come across any documentation that lists when in the day they were downed?
