ANR 30 April, 44

[jcsancho]

I'm searching for P-38 accounts of combat on 30 April, 44. So far I've gathered the following information:

82nd FG - flew escort to Allessandria MY - Major Phillips 95 fighter squadron indicated the mission was completely uneventful.

1st FG - also few escort to Allessandria MY (B-24s 49th BW)

14 FG - flew escort to Milan - saw a few E/A however did not indicate any combat. Major Forrest Barker was lost, but this seems to be due to an accident.

Which group did Gruppo Caccia engage for the following claims? I believe it's the 1st FG but I have not been able to find any definitive information. Or possible one squadron of another group.
