Like flying aces, or snipers, where it may be uncertain who landed the killing blow on a certain foe, or if that foe actually died, or there’s the possibility that no one else was around to see that this person actually killed someone? The thought just came up while I was watching the Sabaton History video on Francis Pegahmagabow : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJPyLlxj8nY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJPyLlxj8nY) .
He is apparently credited with 378 kills. How do they accept that number and hold any faith in its accuracy?

Fighter pilots claim downed aircraft. In Ye Olden Dayes there was no real way to confirm it. Nowadays it is easier to know whether a plane was actually destroyed.
Nobody actually keeps count of people killed in ground combat. There is not a box on your ERB that says ‘Kill Count.’ If a sniper (or whomever) wants to claim a certain number of kills, they can have fun with that. There is no way to confirm it and nobody truly cares.
