B-17 claim on 14 July 1944

According to the Flugbuch - flight log - of a pilot from 5./JG 51 on the morning of 14 July 1944 he engaged and shot down a B-17s 4 kms south of Mylos in Greece. Apparently this claim was not confirmed, if it was submitted for confirmation at all. Has anybody got any more Information about this incident such as unit involved, target etc. ?

The date was corrected in the flight log, appearing after the entries of 15 July; although it reads quite clearly as "14" it may also - faint possibility - be a "19" and therefore 19 July.
