Re: Question regarding a 332nd FG MUstang

August 8th, 1944 332 FG losses.
One source suggests there were 6 lost.
But other sources state only 5.
They were -
MACR 7469 - P-51C 42-103918 - 100 FS, S/D by Flak 10km SE of Marseille at 10.47 - 1Lt. Langdon E, Johnson - Kia.
Other's were -
99 FS - S/D by Flak near Toulon 1045/1100 - 2Lt. Joseph E, Gordon - Kia.
Then these three who became POW's.
99 FS - S/D by Flak whilst straffing a Radar Station near Montpellier 1045/1100, pilot bailed out, 2Lt. Richard D, Maconc - WiA - POW.
302 FS - S/D by Flak, Ditched off Narbonne Plage 1045/1100 - 2Lt. Robert H, Daniels Jr- POW.
302 FS - S/D by Flak, pilot bailed out near Narbonne Plage 1045/1100 - 2Lt. Alexander Jefferson - POW.
There doesn't seem to be any MACR's for the other four. Probably because of details of capture or result of sighting of crash or sea search .

On a positive note George Rhodes Downed a Bf109.
