Lost P-38s

Hi Folks,

does anybody have info on the 2 lost 14th FG P-38L-1-LO planes in Yugoslavia on March 18, 1945? Serials:

44-25041
44-25053

Loss area, SQUADRON NUMBER, names of the pilots and their fate?

Also looking for info on the SQUADRON number (which will tell us the color markings) of F-5E (5th PRG) lost on November 6, 1944, pilot 2Lt. Clarence J. Baker (KIA) at Bakonybel, Kertesko (Hu).

Many thanks,

Gabor

Hi Alex,

thanks for your reply. It is very interesting, since as far as I know this PRG used letter codes, not numbers on the planes. Unfortunately I have not too much data on their marking system yet. Thans again,

Gabor
