Re: MACR question

Hello Frank,
MACR 601 is for Chilson and Wythes. But there is one page within 601 that is for Wythes, so as I see it, 601 serves both airmen and the single page would be 600 for Wythes alone.

Within the 601 are witness reports that suggest the at least one a/c was shot down by a Zero, in flames but the identity of the pilot of tthe P-400 was unknown, nothing on the second P-400.
An intelligence report says that a fighter pilot was captured on the 30th August 1942, but it was not known if the captured airman was either Chilson or Wythes. Nore was this captured pilots fate known.

Alex
