Re: Wilhelm Batz on 7.Dec.1943 and Franz Kurowski
One of Batz's FB is out there amongst those that collect and trade such things. It covers the period from 20-May-42 through 8-Dec-43.
As for Kurowski's books, my impression is that they make for interesting reading, I mean in most cases they are the only narrative source beyond a summary bio for a lot of these pilots. Where they fall down is that his telling of events always seem to chronologically challenged, to be polite about it.

Re: Wilhelm Batz on 7.Dec.1943 and Franz Kurowski
Yes, a good rule of thumb is to check the dates of pilots' significant victories as listed in Kurowski and then compare them to other sources.
...You soon see that 'chronologically challenged' is an understatement.
