Re: USAAF claims on 29 July 1944 over France
Hello----
This reply to an old thread, just to confirm info. from John. Capt. Wallace N. Emmer is credited with 2.5 a/c on 26 July 44, types of a/c not specified. With 6 pilots sharing the a/c described by John, then Capt. Emmer must have shared another to reach the 2.5 mark. Tripp |

Re: USAAF claims on 29 July 1944 over France
Hello Pierre,
according to the excellent book "USAAF (European Theater) Credits for the Destruction of Enemy Aircraft in Air-To-Air Combat" by Frank Olynyk, the only USAAF claims in France that day are: 1 Me-109 dam. Savray area (Gavray?) 19:00 by Lt/Col. Leo C. Moon 404FG 2 FW-190 dam. Savray area (Gavray?) 19:05 by 2/Lt. John W. Wainwright 508FS-404FG Probably US pilots were facing the FW-190s of the I and II JG1, which claimed 2 P-47 at Villedieu-Les-Poeles at 19:08. Cheers Marco |
