I know,but "Quid" of his presence with JG5?no mention...real where false.
According to a source(which I begin to doubt):
15/06/44:one P-40
17/06/44:one P-39

???? strange.

Hi Guys

Whereas the name and rank play perfectly into this being one guy. The fact that he gained all his decoration as a reconnaissance pilot both prior and after the JG 5 claims would suggest two separate guys, though does not prove so.
