Re: Searching for Claim Report

Combat reports for 9th Air Force are difficult to locate. There is no central collection, unlike 8th Fighter Command. In so far as they can be found, they are scattered between the National Archives in College Park, and the USAF Historical Research Agency at Maxwell AFB. Of the three squadrons in the 354th FG only the 356th FS has a complete collection at College Park. I have never found a combat report for Sedvert's Me-262 on March 2 (at 0915 hours, S of Dilligen (Y-1599), while flying the P-51 coded FT-gamma). Sources are the 19TAC VCB report #60; Oprep 577: and the 353rd Mission Schedules.

Frank.
