Re: F-5 and F-6 losses over Yugoslavia (14-17 October 1944)

Hallo Diego,

That will be a very tough nut to crack I fear.

I found nothing on the MACR database on the www.armyairforces.com website. Perhaps try a posting on each of the 3rd PG, 5th PRG and 'Reconnaissance, Rescue and Anti-Submarine' sub-forums. However you will notice that the level of traffic, especially in the first two, is poor.

As far as I can see there are no unit associations for the two MTO Photo Groups or for any of their component squadrons. I have long been interested in these MTO USAAF recce. units, especially the F-4/F-5 squadrons in the Tunisian campaign, but have done no real research on the subject. There are no published histories for either group that I am aware of.

The (limited) American Battle Monuments Commission website has nothing to match either.

Unfortunately I expect the information you want is buried somewhere in the archives of Maxwell AFB, or possibly NARA. Perhaps someone knows more about this - please ?

By the way only very recently did I find your articles about the Soviet pilots in Korea and the North Vietnamese pilots on the American Aces in WW2 website. Easily the best I have read to date on these two fascinating subjects. Well done Diego !

Sorry I could not really help, but good hunting.

Regards,

Martin Gleeson.
