P-38 lost over Bulgaria on 26 August 1944?

There is a claim by Bulgaria's 'top gun' WW 2 pilot, 1st Lt. Stoyan Stoyanov, of a P-38, he reportedly shot down on 26 August 1944. However, I found no information on any 15th AAF fighter units equipped with 'Lightnings' that performed combat mission to Rumania and back, passing Bulgaria.
Can someone point to which unit's P-38 may have been the target of Stoyanov's guns in that final combat over Bulgaria?
Thanks, in advance.
