Lambert's SSW DIII

Gentlemen,

The listing for W.C.Lambert 24 Squadron in ATT shows him downing a SSW DIII on 2 June,1918 around 1115 over Davenscourt. How do you suppose the aircraft type was determined? According to what I have read the SSWs were withdrawn from the front at this time do primarily to overheating problems.
Lambert himself claims a Fokker D VII in his book "Combat Report". Any ideas what aircraft it was and from what unit?

Thanks for your time.

Russ
