Re: USAF Claims

It is parsing the words but Frank is the leading US authority on both claims and credits and the USAF HRC lists only victory Credits which were awarded as a final determination by the reviewing authorities.

Frank has petitioned (successfully) the USAF to update credits from sources lost in the final days of the war or subsequent discoveries (like a mid air collision between a USAAF fighter and a Luftwaffe a/c in which the pilot was KIA or post war POW claims.)

The original USAF 85 was largely updated through Dr Olynyk's efforts and fact gathering.
