The Mosquito was so feared by the Germans at this point, that it counted for the top score towards getting a "Ritter kreuze", the German Iron Cross. If a pilot or ack-ack crew shot down a single~ngine aircraft he got one point towards a "Ritterkreuze", for a twin-engine aircraft he got two points, for a bomber or a transport - three points, and for a Lancaster or Halifax or a Fortress - four points. But if you shot down a Mosquito, you got five points! With seven points, you got a "Ritterlireuze"
This part of the story is not even close to reality. Someone might have looked a bit to deep into the "mossie Myth".
1st Ritterkreuz is not "German Iron Cross"
Ritterkreuz means the "Knightscross"
And for 7 Points you would not even have gotten the Knightscross in early 1940.
In 1942 the "pointcosts" for a Knightscross were somewhere between 40 - 70.
For medal scorig there were just 3 categories:
1 Point: fighter kill
2 Points: 2-eng buff kill
3 Points: 4-eng buff kill
No 4 point and surely no freaking 5 points for a mossie.
