Frank Olynyk in his USN credits for the destruction of enemy aircraft in air-to-air combat world war 2 says the following (air-to-air victories only mind you)
0800 Ens. Bruce Donald Jacques, one Bloch 174 or Potez 63.11, east of Bou Guedra, from VGF-29
1104-9999 Ens Donald Archie Pattie, one Douglas DB-7, Chichaoua airfield, from VGS-29
These two are also listed in Wildcats over Casablanca on page 38

So if five claims were made in total the other three must have been against ground targets.

Cheers
Stig
