Re: All-black captured Mustang?

Skyraider,
With regard to your question several posts back, about the June 9, 1945 entry for a damaged Me-109 for Robert Wiggins, this is indeed a typo, and it should be 1944.

I would also note elsewhere on that page, that at the top they show Lee Archer with 5 victories, and at the bottom with 4.5. His correct score is 4; the entry at the top for July 20, 1944 is incorrect. His Form 5 does not show a flight on this date, nor does the mission report for this date list a victory. The error comes from Francis' history of the Tuskeegee airmen, who misread a very unofficial list.

Frank.
