P-38 Losses 1942
Hello,
Just to perhaps cover "old ground" but the Tony Woods files have the following claims for 1942. 28 November - 7. 29 November - 1. 30 November - 2. How many of the above claims have been either confirmed or otherwise ? Many thanks Alex

Re: P-38 Losses 1942
Hello,
Those were the claims, But I found it difficult to match losses. 28th 14FG, 2 a/c were s/d and pilots Butler and Skinner were Kia, and 2 other a/c were badly damaged. 29th 1FG 1 a/c s/d, pilot Hubbard safe and 1 a/c c/l after combat, pilot Forsythe safe. 30th 14th FG 1 a/c s/d, pilot Cole became POW. For extra, 28th there were 3 losses, 2 in the USA, including 1 fatal and 1 in the UK. 30th there were 3 losses in the USA, including 1 fatal.

Re: P-38 Losses 1942
I would check A History of the Mediterranean Air War, Vol. 3 for claims and losses.
Enjoy! Frank.
