05/01/1944 b-17 shot down Bordeaux, France info on Luftwaffe claims

[CENTURION]

During the American 5-Jan-'44 mission against Bordeaux, a total of 11 B17 were lost (4 B17 of the 94th BG, 5 B17 of the 96th BG, 1 B17 of the 388th BG and finally 1 B17 of the 447th BG). Among these, at least 10 were probably shot down by German fighters. Therefore I think there should be more claims.

Best regards

Thanks - do you have lists of those shot down. I might be able to reverse my search - process of elimination. Thanks.
There are good records out there on Luftwaffe - but I have had a bit of trouble sorting through the squadrons.
