11 June 1943 Fw190 claimed by French/USAAF

On this date sgc Louis Kann of GCI/7 claimed a victory, shared with two American fighters. The source states "en cooperation avec deux pilotes americains" (Decot). MAW however credits him with an individual victory. The victory seems to coincide with those of the 93rd FS/81st FG (three Fw190).

Can anyone add more details and reconcile what the French initially at least consider a shared victory? As an extra detail I note that USAAF pilots do not appear to share victories at this period.

I should add according to MAW there is a single Fw190 of Sch.G.2 lost in the location (Pantelleria) at the time.

best regards

Keith
