Ernst Schafer I/JG300 2./JG302 - Looking for infos

[Laurent Chambon]

In fact, when you look at the claim list at the end of JG300 book from Lorant & Goyat, it appears that E. Schaffer claimed much more victories (total = 12) when he was in the nightfighter period of JG300. Of course, most of them are not officialy awarded but who knows ?
