I am seeking information about USAAF pilot John Cobbey mentioned in the article in Hungarian by Dénes Bernád. It is an interesting description with a lot of detail.

A friend of mine translated it to English, and Google Language Tools also do a crude job of translating most of the content at this URL:

John Cobbey was KIA Sept 2 strafing a German armor column near Pec Yugoslavia (Serbia), but no MACR can be located.
