Re: A 20th Fighter Group P-38 #42-67760 shot down by Egon Mayer

Archer, who hailed from Fort Benton, Montana, really didn't have a chance to score any victories, he had aborted on his first mission - 7 January, 1944 - and was on his second mission when he was killed.

---Update. In looking further into this I discovered Lt. Archer was actually on his third mission, having flown a complete mission on 4 January, then aborting on 7 January.
