Re: FO BJ Oliver 602 Sqn claim, Normandy, 20 July 1944
Cheers Martin. The source I read missed out the statement that Le Roux made no claim. I wondered if a shared claim with Oliver would account for the half-victory he is often credited with. I suspect this may be so.
I also believe the ground-strafing event in 1941 where he is credited with a "probable" in official sources, but which is often given as destroying four Bf109s (on the ground) may constitute part of the myth that states he claims 23.5 victories.
best regards
Keith
