Did the two YP-80As sent to Italy fly any operational sorties before the end of the WWII?

Only one source I have seen on the YP-80As says that the two sent to Italy flew two operational sorties there. These were flown by pilots from the 94th FS. Is this true?

TIA

This may be the source Juha refers to.

Hello RSwank
thanks a lot for the link!
That wasn't my source. It wasn't that authorative. Dorr was a very knowledgeable man. I had the priviledge of changing some messages with him years ago.

Thankfully
Juha
