Re: Pierre Clostermann's victories

Bonsoir Monsieur Cony,

I enjoyed reading your awesome Clostermann biography very much !
Luckily, I chose to learn French at school.
The publication answers nearly all Clostermann questions.
I wonder if it's possible to find the dates of all 14 of his shared claims mentioned in the Broadhurst list (irrespective, if they are real or not). So far, I found:

sh 28.03.1945 He111 DES(1/2) confirmed victory in Public Offical Record archives (Ju88?)
sh 05.04.1944 Bf109 DES(1/2) confirmed victory in Public Offical Record archives
sh 05.04.1944 Bf109 DES(1/2) confirmed victory in Public Offical Record archives
sh 20.04.1945 Ju290 DES(1/2) admitted as confirmed with official citation by French Air Force
sh 03.05.1945 Bf109 DES(1/2) shared with John Irvin Bay Adams
sh 03.05.1945 Bf109 DES(1/2) shared with John Irvin Bay Adams(Fw190?)

but I still lack the dates and decimals of 8 Fw190's.

Best greetings from Switzerland,

Michael
