Re: Wolfgang Spate's 1941 claims?
>Funny you mention Adameit, because on the old forum was posted an account of JG54 veteran, who claimed that Adameit claimed victories of his young wingmen as his very own.
Otherwise, well, there are no German combat reports for most cases, so how can we know this interpretation is correct?
Well, I'm not after to learn exactly about their way of thinking or morale in this case. I just noted that those claims which are recorded for Adameit and were researched by me from Soviet losses point of view looks more reliable than other. That's it.
Main conclusion I can see from all those claims matters - that medium and generally poor-known LW experten probably were far better than primadonnas and traditional LW heroes.
Zweigart is not well known, but actually he probably shot down more than iconic Phillip or Ostermann.
