Re: P-38 Med loss

Let me re-phrase my question. I am looking into possible claims of the III./ZG 1 (flying Me 210's) concerning P-38 Lightnings during their operations over Africa/Med. The III./ZG 1 was in that area between 01.10.1942 and 01.07.1943. At least one pilot claimed a P-38 which flew escort for bombers attacking a German convoy. I believe the claim was before 01.04.1943. Listed combats of III./ZG 1 with Lightnings are;

02.12.1942
05.12.1942
19.04.1943
22.05.1943
24.05.1943

Are there any details know about Me 210 claims of P-38 units in the Med? That list might be helpful in determining these specific combats.

Thanks,

John
