That is a great point and one that I often overlook in rating fighters. A few of the CT HW stiffs that I rated made trips to Europe to serve as cannon fodder. What I did not consider was that they obviously didn't fly on their own dime which means they must have shown something to someone. Still stiffs to be sure, but perhaps a cut above run-of-the-mill stiffdom.
I need to go back and look at a few of them.
