Re: P-38 lost over Bulgaria on 26 August 1944?

Hello researcher 111,
In post 9 you noted the following excert -

"Adorimini " page 205 states that Maj Gardner
led the escort mission to Romania , on the way home
16 enemy fighters engaged 82nd headon near Nis
though they quickly left the P-38's with no desire to fight .

From the excert if there were any losses would it not have been entered in the story line as to who was lost and how ?
My thoughts are that following combat, when the "enemy" thought they had shot down some P38's those P38's must only have been damaged and so were not lost. That would explain there not being any reference to losses in the text.

What does "Adorimini" have for the 25 th ?

Alex
