Re: Luftwaffe Procedure Claim in Eastern Front
Juha,
IMHO Lipfert was one of the most accurate (or even the most accurate) 200+ ace of the Luftwaffe, he was not infected by the 'kill-racing-spirit', like many oher high aces.
Additionally, he was a very nice guy, not just his comrades, but the Hungarian fighter pilots liked him really as well (he is one of my favourite German fighter pilot too).
BTW I found some evident overclaims by Barkhorn as well at the end of the war (race for the 300 kill limit? and found confirmed kills among his scores over enemy territory, without withess too).
