Weird pilot fact in my PBEM game

Post by ny59giants »

I don't usually go through my squadrons to look at the pilots much. However, it is the end of 3/42 and I was looking at my squadrons in Burma/India.
In one of my Hurricane squadrons, I have SLDR Carey with an Exp of 99, Missions - 18, and kills - ZERO. [X(][8|][X(] How does he get that much experience with no kills??

He's most likely a vet from a different front (North Africa, or Battle of Britain).

Or possibly a historical pilot (was an ace in the real war).
