Re: Question regarding a victory for Heinz Bär 07/08/44

Is his report stamped VNE and ASM? Why do you say that it is unfounded? He did engage in airbattle, but did not se a crasch. You will find loads of claims from fighter pilots without seeing the opponent crasch. This is seen on both sides. The Luftwaffe labelled such claims with VNE=Vernichtung nicht erwiesen with some also stamped ASM=Anerkennung später möglich. Authors do make mistakes as they are only human. And so did the clerks in RLM also.
