Good morning Gentlemen,
fron Many Souffan I learned that Foucaud scored all his kills in a Yak-9.
Clostermann's score is a mess in the sources:
This website says 17 but it includes 4 ground kills (3May1945) and two from his logbook =11
http://www.cieldegloire.com/004_clostermann.php
This website says 22 or 33
http://frenchaces.pagesperso-orange.fr/as/m+c.html
This website says 33 but it includes 6 shared 7 probables and one which is suggested by himself = 19+6sh

This website says 19+6sh with 12+6 in the Tempest which includes 1 probable = 18+6sh

According to this website
http://www.pierre-clostermann.com/victoires.html
the French seem so have acknowledged 33 victories (19+14sh) whereas 23 kills seem to have been acknowledged by the RAF.
He seems to have conducted a lawsuit for that. I wonder if my French is sufficient to understand all that correctly.
Cheers,
Michael
