Usaaf Victory Not Listed By Frank Olynyk

Hi All (and particularly Frank Olynyk if he reads this)

On another site there is a statement about an article written in 2003 (where the article is from is not stated) by Lee Kendall (whose name was Solie Solomon back then) who claims he scored the last kill in the Pacific when he shot down a Tojo (Ki-44) on Aug 16th, 1945, operating out of his unit's (548 NFS) base at the Island of Le Shama.

In Frank Olynyks Victory List No 3, USAAF (Pacific Theater) Credits for the destruction of enemy aircraft in air-to-air combat World War 2, this victory is NOT listed.

Can anyone, especially Frank, comment on the above statement??

Best Regards
Stig
