Re: Ltn Karl Heinz Elsner 10./JG2

Many thanks chaps, once again I am in your debt. I had thought he was more successful because he held both the EK I and EKII, and I was misled by the OKL fighter claims listing, assuming the victory claim number was an personal rather than a unit tally based on confirmation. The sources I have read list him with 5 or more victories (Kracker, Magnus) but given his career prior to leading 10./JG2 the tally of 3 seems justified.

best regards

Keith
