Accuracy on certain JG5 claims

Hello All

I ask for your help in trying "to resolve" several battles of JG5.
It's the obscure side of some reported events by E.Mombeek in his vol.3 on the JG5.
Also,if one of you can,complete,modify or correct these events,it's the welcome.

Thanks in advance

1)4/10/42=one hurricane(SSgt.Serow,2/435 IAP)"Alakuttti":winner(s)?
2)22/10/42=one hurricane(Slt.Markow,835 IAP)"Alakutti":winner(s)?
3)17/11/42=one hurricane,one P-40 (of 2./760 IAP) claimed as Lagg:winner(s).
4)26/11/42=one Lagg of (609 IAP) claimed as Mig:winner(s)?
5)8/12/42=two hurricanes (of 435 IAP)lace,winner(s)?
6)14/12/42=three hurricanes(of 835 SAP) claimed as 2 hurricanes and 2 lagg

26.11.42: Lt Friedrich Lüdecke, 6/JG 5
08.12.42: Lt Friedrich Lüdecke, 6/JG 5, südlich Fedosero

the other combat-victors are noted as N N in the same book. Perhaps the original documents from Luftflotte 5 can provide the missing names?

17/11=unknown
14/12=4° or 5° staffels ?

Dr Prien credits the Abschüsse to II/JG 5, not to a specific Staffel.
