Re: 17-May-40 2./JG 76 Schypek or Schulten

Having had a chance to review '12 Days in May' it appears, unless there is a later edition than the one I have, that the authors attribute the 2./JG 76 loss in question on 17-May-1940 to Schypek. So far it appears that only Gillet has noted and corrected the conflict in a published source - Schulten vs. Schypek. At least amongst the sources I know. I have a copy of Schypek's FB and certainly hadn't noticed the conflict between this and other sources. Cudos to Mr. Gillet. Hope it adds to the recording of an accurate record of the campaign in May 1940.
