Perhaps it is because of the daylight film of them being chased and destroyed by Tempests etc, I hadn't realised that they were successfully intercepted by night. Surprisingly it seems that these three kills do not constitute part of the final tally of 21 aircraft destroyed, despite the great danger that downing them posed. Given his strong beliefs these three victories were the ones that he was most comfortable with I guess.
