Searching for mission/victory reports USAAF MTO (Italy) /14 April 1944
 
Bonjour,

According to the http://aces.safarikovi.org/usa.warti...y.credits.html
at least 9 American pilots claimed one victory on 14 April 1944 over Italy in Mediterranean Theater of Operations (MTO):
Confer R. (2FTR)
Emmons E. (317 FTR)
Chick L. (317 FTR)
Malloy R. (318 FTR)
Mars L. (37 FTR)
Mc Guffin S. (97 FTR)
Mock R. (317 FTR)
Rynne W. (317 FTR)
Schneider A. (97 FTR)
Please is it possible to obtain the victory report for each of these claims ?
Thank you very much.
Philippe

The correct date is February 14, 1944.

The individual combat reports for the 325th FG (except for Bob Baseler's) are held at NARA II (College Park, Maryland). About six inches or more of paper.

There may be combat reports for the 52nd FG. For the others you have to rely on their mission reports. For both the British and the Americans, MTO combat reports are pretty scarce.

Enjoy!

Frank.
