Re: Seeking info on 1940 career of Fw Alfred Warrelmann of 15.(Z)/LG1
Laurent,
You are absolutely correct that it is a fools errand to try to compare rudder victory tabs with "confirmed" victories at any particular time, except perhaps at the time of photo shoots when RK were awarded or at other such PR times. I've encountered this problem many times. It is also evident in some units that BF victory claims were included, which means the total won't match the victories claimed/awarded to a particular pilot. However, in the case of Warrelmann, the victory information for 15.(Z)/LG1 for 1940 is not complete, and there is reason to believe that he had another day victory, probably during the WC/FC or the BoB, that is among the unit's missing information. |
