Re: P-38 crash in Drvar, Bosnia, in September 1944.

There is MACR 7192 for Lt Micheli, 1st FG P-38 44-23147. He was last seen over the Adriatic. July 13, 1944. He is still MIA, but what is of interest are the various serial numbers on his plane.

Engines were: A-047741 and A-047203.
Guns were: 120594 for the 20 mm.
50 Cals were: 1190385, 1190428, 1190821, and 734993

Note for our Unknown, the engine serial number A-047489 is right between the two above.
The 20mm is not real "close" at 120206 but seems to be in the same range.
The 50 Cal from our Unknown were: 1190382, 1190815, 1294465. Two of them are very close to Micheli's.
