Thanks for the updates Andrei
Perhaps I then should have said I find these late Luftflotte reports rather fanciful

And I still wonder if anyone really believed in them. Perhaps they were issued as moral raiser for the troops? The latter is perhaps to stretch the facts a bit too far....
However I found Johannes theory about 38 missions rather than 38 claims far more valid in Nitsch's case. But who knows? The one who
really knew is gone, and we are left to our own conjectures and beliefs. Without further evidence I'm afraid we get no further.
Cheers
