Re: Japanese claim of summer 1942?
Nuppol,
If any USAAF bomber loss in that theater, then two B-17s on 13 June 1942, but not due to Japanese fighters in this instance.
B-17s 41-2636 and 41-41-2655 both crashed shortly after take-off in heavy rain off Horn Island, Australia. Mission to Lae.
Regards,
Leendert
