Re: USAAF Claims for Me 163s
From an old file (written before I started to systematically note sources, so no source, sorry), I have six USAAF claims against Me 163s, the earlier being on 29 July 1944:
440729: Cpt Arthur Ferdinand Jeffrey, 434th FS, 479th FG: 1 Me 163 in Wilhelmshaven area, Germany
440816: 2nd Lt Cyril W Jones, Jr, 370th FS, 359th FG: 1 Me 163 SE Leipzig, Germany
440816: LtCol John Byrd Murphy, 370th FS, 359th FG: 1 Me 163 SE Leipzig, Germany
441102: Cpt Louis H Norley, 335th FS, 4th FG: 1 Me 163 SE Leipzig, Germany
441102: Cpt Fred W Glover, 336th FS, 4th FG: 1 Me 163 E Leipzig, Germany
450315: Cpt Ray S Wetmore, 370th FS, 359th FG: 1 Me 163 in Wittenberg area, Germany
No idea if it was a complete or even accurate to current standard list.
