Re: SB2C aerial victories - Pilot names?
Yes, I think it would be impossible to establish which pilot sank most tonnage because, as you say, the great majority of shipping attacks were by combined VB/VT strike groups. Also bear in mind that most VT attacks on shipping used bombs rather than torpedoes, so both VB and VT would be dropping bombs on the same ships.
