Goring's orders

[edit]

The section on Goring's order to ram or get courtmartialled seems weird - I can't find any references to it that don't appear to come back to this article. It seems like the sort of thing that would be well covered if it was real. @MisterBee1966: you've done a lot of work on this article - perhaps you have an idea on the veracity of this?Pipsally (talk) 11:22, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically in this bit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Philipp#Wing_commander_of_JG_1_and_death


There are no meteorological conditions which would prevent fighters from taking off and engaging in combat. Every fighter pilot returning in a machine not showing any sign of combat, or without having recorded a victory will be prosecuted by a court-martial. In the case of where a pilot uses up his ammunition, or if his weapons are unusable, he should ram the enemy bomber.

@Pipsally: The reference to this statement is before the list. See the following book, page 184. Cheers MisterBee1966 (talk) 12:01, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Have a look here, not specifically speaking to details, it addresses the point. This book and book use different words but also speaks to the topic. Cheers MisterBee1966 (talk) 16:39, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
