BREUER Wilhelm (JG 54) victories ?

[canonne]

Hi,

Concerning this pilot I have got only 3 victories. But it seems a total group of 4 kills :

1- 23.06.1941. SB-3 / Stab. I/ JG 54.
2- 06.07.1941. SB-3 / 1/JG 54.
3- 23.06.1942. SB-3 / 1/JG54.

Please would you be so kind as to confirm / complete / change this list ?
Thank you.
Philippe

All your contribution are very helpfull ! Thank you very much indeed ! I do appreciate. Please is it possible the official list of victories of a fighter pilot could change ? Or did all lists compiled during wartime will never change ?
Thank you
Regards

Phil.

Hi Guys

Totals for pilots vary because of several things, some included unconfirmed in their total, others a confusion with the points system, some are quoted from other pilots.......and not always correct, other taken from abschuße bords(these include unconfirmed), a few pilots exaggerated !

I have compiled a list of "ALL" Luftwaffe pilots who made a least one "confirmed" claim by official sources, if anybody would like a copy drop me your e.mail address, or even better if anybody can link TOCH to it even better.

Kind Regards

Johannes
