Come on, don't make me laugh. You know that won't do.

I'm sure we all sympathise that it must be very weary trying to defend a statement for which you can not produce ANY evidence. It must be much more fun name-dropping names of dead pilots and spinning tales around them.

All you need to do is name the sources for these tales, which you still say are many. Please come forward and produce the titles of a few of these "most books". Can't be HARD to find some if they are so abundant.

I'm quite prepared to beleive you've actually got your wires crossed and are talking about the wrong guy ? If so just come clean.

go into detail on Foch during WWI, he is another "fancy" Hero, he would fly .........

Marshall Foch was a General in the French Army at the time and unlikely to be flying anywhere as he was approaching 70 years old. See what I mean....

I'm sat here looking a pile of expectant Xmas gift book tokens. So help me to read more about the other side of J.E.J., as you yourself suggested. Name a few good books for us all ....

A quick re-cap here.

HS has called the highest scoring Allied Ace in ETO a "Fool", "liar" and "made a living based on what he claimed to do".

This is based on stuff in "most books".

Now we can't yet beleive the former because HS has yet to offer up any explanation or source for these accussations. The letter claim re "most books " is quite evidently not true.

I wouldn't apologize to him, if he were alive

Now this probably is quite true. J.E.J. was quite a formidable man. Would take someone with some courage to approach this chap and apologise for publicly slandering him on some forum. Definitely would require more courage than shown by the sort of guy who would go into hiding under a duvet because someone questioned their post.

So, you've had over a week to ponder, please post these sources of aviation literature that you promised us all did indeed exist.

Or altenatively, apologise for your errors.

Remember,
Semper Fi !
