Re: №100 victory of Lt. Emil Lang - question

Johannes, thx for reply.
Microfilms list Lang's claim on 4 November, but it runs in the line betwee Lang's claims on one mission on 3 November. Also, there was extremly bad weather (almost nil combat missions by VVS and LW both) on 4 November, so I consider this claim as one of 3 November, making day score to 18.

As for overclaiming, for 5./, 6./ and 12./JG54 over Kiev, only 9 of 33 victories are confirmed by soviet losses. Details will be in my article.

Question is, when Lang actually reached his 100?

P.S. #"250" of Kittel is 100% confirmed soviet loss.
