[Marcel Hogenhuis]

Hello RedCap50,

Not being a productive author myself, it is not my habbit to criticize other publications but there is a good reason to temper the expectations of Foreman's Night Fighter Claim book. Lots of claims were taken from a notorious German list, made by the late Emil Nonnenmacher. He once included many fake claims as a sort of copyright security measure. The results were that many air war historians refer to German nightfighter claims which were never made in reality. Several of these claims were later included in the famous RAF Bomber Command losses volumes of William Chorley. You will not be surprised that I use the BCL volumes frequently but I also avoid carefully to use the references to German nightfighter claims.

Best regards, Marcel
