Halberstadt Aces

Does anyone know if any German piolt made ace/kanoe by downing 5 or more planes in a Halberstadt fighter. I think the following may be in the running:
Jasta 4Possibly Bernet, Frankl, or Berthold

Jasta 5 Possibly Muller, Berr, or Theiller

other Von Eschwege?

Any feedback would be welcome. Thanks in advance.

Jasta 11 flew Halberstadt fighters from Jan. 17-Mar. 17. Karl Schafer made ace during this time period and may have been flying Halbs for five kills.

Apparently all von Eschwege victories were on Halberstadt - is that correct? – that makes him top ace on the type with 20 victories.

Question – was it Halberstadt DIII 119/17?

Any info would be very helpful!

Cheers!
