[KM1957]

John,

The only 9th AF claims on October 8 were by P-47 units, air and ground. I have all the unit records on microfilm and have been through the files at the National Archives, so am pretty sure the following is accurate. On this date the following units claimed aircraft on the ground:
365 and 366FS's of the 358 FG at Germersheim, Sacshenheim and Chateau Salines.
378 and 379 FS's of 362 FG at Crailsheim
389 and 391 FS's of 366 FG at Ober-Olm
404 and 405 FS's of 371 FG at Stuttgart-Boblingen
411 and 412 FS of 373 FG at Frankfurt and SE Frankfurt
513 and 514FS's of 406 FG at Biblis.

I have the claims, locations, and names of the individual pilots. I checked October 7 and October 9, no P-38 claims. If you find a different date, let me know and I'll check it out.
