Re: World War I Dogfight
The documents were available to researchers between the wars. If you are curious regarding losses, view Casualties of the German Air Service 1914-1920 by Norman Franks, Frank Bailey and Rick Duiven. Therein it states that in 1930 Walter von Eberhardt published Unsere Luftstreit Kraft 1914-1918 of which Frank Bailey had a copy. Rick Duiven also had a copy.
My issue is why was Rickenbacker given credit for a kill without additional witnesses (beside himself).
