Re: German day fighter top aces by JG
To me, shining the once given glory of an opportunist pilot (namely Hartmann) who:
- did not take the opportunity to clarify the truth after the war (if - let's say- once it was only the propaganda-pressure of the Luftwaffe or his unit on him he ~had to accept),
- whose only every 3rd, or 4th claim can be verified from the records of the opposite side, as a much worse statistics than most fighter aces' of WWII,
- so to me rather THIS seems to be emotional, having nothing in common with an objective, historical approach that is ultimately the main goal of this forum.
