Hello Leo

As far as I know, you're right, when Mr Shores and co wrote their series of books about the Med air war (Fighters over the Desert, Fighters over Tunisia, the both Malta books and the Greece/Yugoslavia/Creete book), the claims microfilms later used by Tony Wood were not available to them. They used the unit histories compiled by Jochen Prien at the time, built from other sources and that the recent Prien books have heavily corrected for claims using sources that have become available in the interval.

Best regards
