Re: P-38 losses, southern Greece 15/17 November,1943
Just a tad bit of over-claiming by the Luftwaffe that day. The 82nd FG history actually mentions this as they lost no 38s despite the JG27 claims. The 14th FG were not involved and as mentioned the 1st FG lost one. That's it for possible 38 Groups involved.
Nothing on the 17th although again the Luftwaffe over claimed as the only loss was one B25 for the USAAF that day.
Interesting to note that the 38 Groups involved did not over claim. Somewhat amazing that the Luftwaffe claims were for 13-14 38s on the 15th and 5 on the 17th, when in fact 1 was lost. That's some seriously exaggerated claims.
