Regarding the other story: yes, it was probably Bob Goebel (I have his remembrance and discussed that story with him as well)
Thanks! Wow, EIGHT pilots KIA? And my more generic sources don't even mention this day! I don't suppose you got any details as to how many German and/or Romanian aircraft were lost on this day?
