Re: P-38 crash in Drvar, Bosnia, in September 1944.

Hello,
From the 83 serial numbers only one came good in Fold3.
44-23085 - made 16449.
So 82 unknowns.
Question how were the replacement aircraft delivered in theAtlantic and Pacific war areas, were they flown over miles of ocean or sent as ships cargo. If by ship is it possible that a ship with a batch of P38's was sunk?
This might explain the run of numbers numbers, it would be known the ship had sunk with its cargo so there would not be any macr's(no pilots).
Alex
