Re: Two USAF Fighter Pilots
Capt. Harold J. Herrick claimed two Me 109s destroyed on December 31, 1944. He was with the 81st Fighter Squadron, 50th Fighter Group, First Tactical Air Force (Provisional). Capt. Lewis W. Powers was with the 355th Fighter Squadron, 354th Fighter Group, Ninth Air Force. His victory claims were one-half Me 109 May 11, 1944, a FW 190 on July 26, 1944, and a Me 109 on October 29, 1944. In addition he was awarded a FW 190 probable on July 26 and two Me 109s damaged on October 29. Finally, on December 18, 1944, he was awarded an unconfirmed destroyed FW 190, which does not count in his final victory total.
