Re: Pierre Gouachon-Noireault GC2/5
Thanks chaps,
I have his victories in March as both probables, and as one Bf109 and a Fw190 but the 0-1-1 seems more accurate given that he has five victory symbols on his P47D-28 in late 1944 (i.e. after 18.6.44). Likewise the Gisclon book only indicates a Bf109, probably going along with the general lack of recording "damaged" claims?
The Journal de Marche of GCII/5 doesn't seem to indicate a Bf109 damaged on 18/6/44, possibly unconfirmed?
It's also probable that all his P-47D claims were in another aircraft because "Bubble-Tops" weren't delivered to USAAF units before May 1944, so I assume the French received them much later.
regards
Keith
