Re: Lockheed P-38 Lightning - successful over five continents

Good morning Frank & Alex,

Alex's list indicates only one kill for Laven in February 1943 (plus a half-share on 3Oct42 and one on 26Apr45).

It seems to me like the P-39 scored on at least four continents:
  • Europe: Grigorii Rechkalov (Ukraine)
  • Africa: Hugh Dow (Tunisia)
  • Asia: The US P-39's are supposed to have scored five kills in the CBI, is this true ?
  • Australia & Oceania: William McDonough (Papua New Guinea)
  • America: Arthur Rice (Aleutians)
Cheers,

Michael
