Planes Destroyed on the ground list
 

Looking for a list of USAAF Pilots with Planes Destroyed on the ground for the 9th AF,12th AF and 10/14th AF. I'm thinking maybe no such a thing but never hurts to ask.
I know most din't get "credit" for them but many pilots added them to their aircraft.
Thanks

Mike - Kent made just enough errors on 355th related stuff (repeating some I made BTW) that I am a little cautious - having said that the two books are the best out there for this kind of research. His loss stuff for example is a lot better than Bits and Pieces.

In order highest to lowest accuracy for 355th/Scout Force stuff.
air victories - 98%
ground scores - 95%
Pilot names - 90%
A/c flown by pilots 70%
MIA/KIA/Evade -actual cause and locations 70%

I don't really fault him on the latter two categories because it took me 20 years of research with all the photos, Randall and Damick and Shewfelt collaboration to get it to the point where I am 98-100% on the people/score/losses and perhaps 95% on all the aa/c that flowed through 355th SFE and 2SF at Steeple Morden..
