112sqn losses vs 4/JG27 claims 03.10.41
 

hi,

i have a question about 112Sqn losses,

i see in Mediterranean Air War of C. Shores that 112 Sqn lost in this date only one plane:
Sgt Ian Harper Stirrat Tomahawk Mk. IIB AK502

but in http://raf-112-squadron.org/planelosses.html
i found:

Tomahawk Mk. IIB AK502 / N/A
Sgt Ian Harper Stirrat, 404186, RAAF
4/10/41
A/C destroyed in combat over Sidi Omar, claimed by Hpt Gerlitz 2/JG27, pilot KIA no Luftwaffe film found some dispute over this claim Jerry Harrison log book has it occurring on 3/10/41 , Escort for Tactical reconnaissance Aircraft- Escorted Hurricanes over Bardia-Capuzzo-Sidi Omar. on the way home jumped by 5 ME109,s Sgt Stirrat shot down in flames, Sgt Carson force landed, claims made by Oberleutenant Rodel and Leutenant Schlacht of 4/JG-27.

Sgt William Edward Carson,404168.RAAF?
or the brother Sgt Kenneth (Kit) Francis Carson, 404233, RAAF?
