Just a thought, if someone's father flew the Bf-110 in WWII, and that person found a forum frequented by bona fide experts, then meets someone that (in my humble opinion) is probably the most knowledgeable person on said Bf-110, I'd:
Immediately try to find out more about my fathers unit from someone who obviously knows unit histories inside and out.
Probably be motivated to share any and all information (you can Private Message

to keep names out of the forum) to see if I can learn more.
Also I don't think I'd challenge someone that has done the research over decades with memories of what you saw years ago in a scrap book and perhaps some stories from your father.
This isn't a knock on

just an observation. I don't see why you sound so offended by some of John's posts, I would think this is a great opportunity for you to learn more about what your father did and have a better understanding of what he went through at that time.
Fortunately I had a father and uncle that were avid diarists and so have a pretty good insight into their thoughts and experiences in both the ETO and the PTO. What I DON'T have however, is official records that detail day to day operations and losses etc.
Sorry, I don't mean to overstep any boundaries but I really don't like to see opportunities like this wasted, it seems

has a great chance to learn about a signature moment in his fathers life.
