First, get your facts straight. Bishop talked about doing the raid with Ball. However Ball was killed whilst Bishop was on leave. After he came back from leave, he talked to
Willy Fry about doing it. Fry confirmed this later. However Fry decided not to go when the time came.
So where are the inconsistencies now?

p.s.
There's no such thing as a "worst ace". Do try to denigrate ANYONE who risked his life in aerial combat does an injustice not only to those accused, but to ANY who took to the air in defense of their country.
