Hi all

I am not very amiliar with USAAF or Western Desert Air Force. I am focusing on 15th usaaf. But in connection to german pilot biography research I am interested to know if there were losses of P-38s on 10. may 1943 and 22. may 1943 near Tunis, Sicily, MTO...I found only one loss of 9AF, 94FS pilot Lowe lost on 22.5.1943...anyone can write me more detailed info please?
