Re: Mustangs lost over Hungary on 14 October 1944
Then again it may have been 2Lt Raymond Henry Mann, O-714483
MACR 9141 time on macr 1205 hrs.
Last known position: 4702N 1954E.
Date of death given as 14th October 44.
Witness Lt Col. Ralph James Watson statement flying low(50 or so feet) hit by flak or other ground fire - so again not shot down by fighter.
Only four P-51's and pilots - 1 POW, Leary; 1 evader Bell; 1 KIA Mann; 1 FOD Houghton.
Other fighters were two P-38's.
As for RAF, again Mosquito, Wellington were both twin motor, and a four motor Liberator.
Tony Woods list for the 14th also had a Russian Aerocobra ( an American a/c ).
