Re: 42-103226

For 42-103224 and MACR 6275 then it is the correct date but you were asking about 42-103226. There was no MACR for 42-103226 as this crashed in friendly territory at Eupen-Aachen on 23 December 1944. MACRs at that time were running in about the 11### range.

The pilot of 42-103226 that your enquiry concerned was Charles J Smith. MACR 6275 concerns Malcolm F Cox, 12th PS who bailed out in the Comburg area of France on 22 June 1944. Hope this helps clear things up for you.
