No mention of 2 attacks and Morr's claim is said to have occurred off Cape Finisterre which is miles away from where this B-24 crashed and of course, as Morr did not see it crash he would not have claimed it

Thanks Chris
Since we (at this stage) obviously don't know the origin of Morr's claim other than a list supplied to you,
we can still keep an open mind.

If the old list is accurate, the claim is not impossible and since we know how easy it was for both
sides to overclaim, wishful thinking did play havoc with regard to more claims than one....

Cheers

Just got the PERS 6 file for Lt Friedrich-Wilhelm Schlüter of 1./NAG 13 who was credited with shooting it down. Very experienced pilot with 4./22, 5./22, NAG 10 and then 1./NAG 13; awarded EP and DKiG but no mention of this victory
