Herschell H.Green claims

[focusfocus]

Hello

I have a very old book,and good "Checkertail clan:the 325th Fighter Group in North Africa and Italy (1969!!) who credits Green with a single Bf.109 on 05/28/43 as well as Rayburn D.Lancaster,Bruce Cunningham,John Palmer.

IN MAW vo.4(page.59),the claim of John Palmer is missing (error? and who?) and Green,Lancaster,Cunningham are each credited of two Bf.109.(also error?)

Green is also credited with a Bf.109 on 12/30/43 (1969),I can't find of that claim on internet.

the age of the book (1969)?...wich is nevertheless excellent (52 years!)

Aren't 4 Ju-52 credited as aerial victories rather than ground claims? no?
