Thank you, retje.

Another comment I have is the following. For Major Karl Montag, the document gives Credited with 3 victories.

However, the three victories he scored while serving as a Zerstörer pilot were all rejected by the OKL/RLM Abschusskommission.
In my opinion, 'credited with' gives the impression that he scored three confirmed victories. I would suggest saying: "Made three victory claims which were rejected."


Kind regards,
Timon
