Re: Luftwaffe losses. Rhubarb 22/05/1941.
Why would the Luftwaffe have "hidden" losses exactly? How and who from? If such a thing happened then it beggars belief that hard evidence of such practices has not surfaced before now, surely!

Re: Luftwaffe losses. Rhubarb 22/05/1941.
Exactly so Robert. Overclaiming was, and is, an element of warfare. It happened and happens. And that does not mean to say that the "overclaimers" (of any side) were being dishonest. I am sure I am not alone in thinking that the allegations that the Luftwaffe hid the real extent of their losses is in any way credible.

Overclaiming did happen on both sides.
