Nor at the final edit stage, was the text checked carefully enough to see if it matches the matrix. A cause of intense annoyance to the team which we are constantly striving to fix... As to Alex's point on MACRs, the 1943 MACRs can be all over the place as it appears at some point the filing system fell apart. Thus the large number of pages not attributed to a MACR but listed as 1943 or 1944.

I am still confused.
You have 14th FG flying an escort mission on the 21st
You have 14th FG flying an escort mission on the 22nd
I fully understand why your mistakes happen, but can you just tell us who was lost at which date please? The names mentioned are only in your Matrixes and not in your text!

The home page referred to by Nick H. list
Little on the 20th
Henry and Snyder on the 22nd

MAW 4 lists
Little and Snyder on the 21st (+ Forster)
Henry on the 22nd

Cheers
