The German naval fighter squadron was based at Jabbeke, Belgium. Scharon was promoted to ''Vizefeldmeister'' on 16 August 1918.〔Franks et al 1993, pp. 197-198.〕 Scharon scored his first aerial victory on 20 September 1918, when he shot down a Sopwith Camel from No. 204 Squadron RAF over Pervyse at 1005 hours.
