Re: John L.Wirth (VF-31)

Wirth's claims for the 30 March fighter sweep over the Palaus were 2 Zekes and 1 Hamp (probable) although there was no third-party or gun camera evidence to support them.

He did not participate in the later mission on which 9 Judys were shot down, nor in the earlier 29 January combat mentioned in the Wikipedia article.
