Re: Combat Report Forgeries
Peter
Interesting! At last some sense out of the conundrum. I agree that a forger would be pretty stupid to make up events. However, from possibly the same source I have seen one to Flt Lt R Rimmer of 229 Squadron made out for a supposed action on 7 October 1940. Since Rimmer was killed on 27 September I think that the only explanation is a clanger by the forger. I suppose, though, it could be a genuine mis-date....October instead of September?
Your input might offer some comfort Peter, although I am pretty convinced this Frantisek one is not original.
Thank you, Peter.
I should have thought to look more closely at the Feric connection, but was blind-sided by the apparent 11 September date.
