23 Dec 42 with P-38 fight over Bay of Buscay

dear all,

we are looking for the MACR of the P-38 pilots that were attacked on 23 Dec. 1942 by Ju88 C6 of KG40.

Namely : while 51 P-38 escorted by one Boston are going to Gibraltar, 4 Ju88C6 of KG40 bounce the group, shot down the Boston and one P-38, and damage several P-38.

In detail :
Lt Earl Green of the 95th FS survive an manage to evade to Spain
Lt Broadhead of 96th FS flies back to Saint Eval
Capt Buddy Strozier 96th FS force lands in Portugal
Lt T.S. Miller 97th FS crash lands in Spain.

Can you help find the MACR for these pilots ?

Thanks a lot
Gilles

PS : special thanks to C. Goss for all the above info
