Re: US claims during the Vietnam war

Another book is MiG Killers: A Chronology of U.S. Air Victories in Vietnam 1965-1973 by Donald J. McCarthy, Jr. (Specialty Press, 2009) detailing each claim from the US side with lots of photos.

MiGs Over North Vietnam: The Vietnamese People's Air Force in Combat, 1965-1975 by Roger Boniface (Hikoki, 2008) lists 262 VPAF pilots and crew members KiA but does not fully list all combat losses. From 1965 to 1973 the book claims that 146 MiGs were lost through all causes compared with US claims for 191 shot down.
