Re: Combat Report Forgeries

Hello Andy and Peter,

I am no expert on artifacts either, but I believe I can support your suspicion that the František´s Combat Report in question is a forgery. I have photocopies of some of his Combat Reports (obtained directly from National Archives webpage) from September 1940, including that from 11 September 1940 and the given time and location are different as well as other details including the text of the General Report and František´s hand-written signature. Peter, I do not believe the actual date is 2 September, written in Latin digits - all other František´s reports I have seen have the date written with Arabic numbers. But I may be wrong, of course...

Hope this might help a little,

Ota
