Absolutely not what I was meaning, history is at his best IMHO when official documents and narrative history can be combined.
But in this case, as the narrative history as no date other than "at the end of the war" or something like that, it seems to me that the claim it was the last dogfight of the war is not very strong. And personnal memories tens of year after the event (Ryan wrote in the 60's IIRC) are not so much reliable.
