Kurt Rochel vs claim

Hello all

I'm trying to understand this;he would be credited with his first claim in ww2 on 14/05/40.(source ACES vol.3)

Yet in a list wich compiles the claims of 5/ZG26 up to 08/41,there is no claim 14/05/40
His other claims correspond to the list.
Thanks for any help

Michel

Hi,

I confirm his victory on 14.5.40 during the course of the morning mission that had been started at approx. 10.35 hrs. It was an escort for I./KG1 and III./KG1 in the area of Charleroi.
