I'm not sure Col was saying there was a kill on 13/14 June 1941, just that Raphael flew VY-E on that night.
And on checking my later edition, purchased used on Abebooks a year or so ago, I only just noticed my copy was signed by Shores on 16/8/94.

Sorry Peter
Just noticed Christian did not state any month in his request, but page 44 of "the Blitz" vol 3 specifically is
June and there is a claim made by F/Lt Raphael during the night of 13/14 June.
I planned to update my Aces High with Col's data (VY-E) and was surprised the date was absent.
At first I thought it must be a mistake somewhere, since we have claims the same night in both May and July as well, but no, these claims are also valid.
So I am in fact a bit puzzled
Cheers
