Re: The first ace to reach a certain score

Oh do tell us how complete or incomplete loss listings are on the basis of painstaking, meticulous Googling and trawling the appendices in the back of Osprey books...

Perhaps the "denigration" comes from the fact that researching casualties comes from an interest in remembrance whereas comparing "scores" listed completely and utterly at face value reflects an interest that seems rather close to glorification...?
