US Aircraft Struck Off Charge

I have a vague memory of a reference on TOCH to a document/microfilm from the USAFHRA (Maxwell AFB) that lists aircraft struck off charge during the war. This is not microfilm A1114 which lists MACRs, but something different. Can anyone give me the title and reference to this document?

Frank.

That particular microfilm I have a copy of, is of a rather bad quality.
Is there perhaps an enhanced quality version, possibly copied onto a DVD?

Thanks,

Good afternoon Frank !

Is it probably A5686 ?. It's listing all a/c serials of 8th and 9th AF, which received the status MIA - SAL BD and SAL NBD during 1942 - 45.

Best regards !

Re: US Aircraft Struck Off Charge

Horst,
Many thanks. Sounds like it could be the reference I remember. Unfortunately I am looking for this information for 12th and 15th Air Forces. But I will follow up with the folks at Maxwell and see what they come up with. At least I have a place to start now.

Enjoy!

Frank.

Frank, if you'll find out the details on that particular microfilm, please keep us updated.

Dénes,
I have a request in to USAFHRA at Maxwell about A5686, although I mentioned my interest in 12th and 15th AF. When I hear back from them I will post the information here. I also asked about A1114, and will let you know what I hear about that as well.

Enjoy!

Frank.
