precisely,I also have this,wich is why I am amazed (the claims of 8/JG2 being particularly reliable,these are the BEST of all of the JG2)

I also had a Spitfire by Ofw Friedrich May 0944 hrs all north of Ile de Batz. No other RAF losses at all that day so overly optimistic; the claims the day after for 8./JG 2 were more accurate

Right,the claims of the 13/06/43 are 100%
reliable. conclusion,the 2 claims of Ebert/Mannetstetter are unsubstantiated,in the best of cases shared (1/3) with May. Michel |
