I have seen only one refutation - Shores' statement that the P-39 was used by the Soviets for ground attack. I won't make that mistake again. And questions about Clostermann's reliability; things like that whcih I have taken onboard. Thanks.
Otherwise I have bene hearing the same statements - such as a Vengeance with a crew of two would suffer twice the aircrew losses of a Typhoon. Someone saying that does not understand the CAS environment, where specific threats have to be answered by a specific weapon, and these need coordinating in all-arms.
For the rest, you believe 2TAF supplied effective CAS, RPs were good enough, and 2TAF was better than nothing.
I think fatigue has taken over. But its always interesting to discuss these matters, although its unpleasant to be compared with David Irving.
