7th and 14th July 1944, 15th USAAF fighters claims vs. Me 410

[Gizmo]

Thanks for answers.

My source is 'Me 410 in Combat' by K. Janowicz. I think that author make an mistake with 8th July clash, when in fact I./ZG 76 lost eight Me 410s due to 82nd FG Lightnings. It's odd that 8th July combat is mention in "Me 410 in combat" and eight ZG 76 losses to.

Erich, Did you know something about I./ZG 26 losses on 7th July ? 8th USAAF fighter pilots claimed 21.5 Me 410s shot down, it will be huge overclaiming. In "Me 410 in combat" I found information that ZG 26 lost 16 Me 410s that day, but it can be typo for "6" cause book is full of errors.

Its can by interesting for you that except Capt. Jim Morris P-38, USAAF lost in combat with Me 410 also two P-51B. According great "Fighter Units & Pilots of the 8th Air Force' book by Keneth D. Miller:
Lt. J. M. Scally (334th FS/4th FG) collided with Me 410 near Nordhausen, POW,
Lt. H. M. Huish (354th FS/355th FG) hit by debris from Me 410 near Halle, KIA.
