Wekusta 26 losses

[James A Pratt III]

I am looking for for down or damaged the following Wekusta 26 aircraft:

26 July 42 Ju 88D 5M+E shot down off Alexandria. In looking through the book "Fighters over the Desert" there are no RAF claims this day there is a claim for a Ju 88 by Fl Lt Ingram of 601 Sqn on the 25th. Could this be the one or did FOTD miss a claim.

11 Aug 42 Ju 88D wk num 430146 was badly damaged by fighter attack no claims in FOTD. It does have on the 10th a He 111 (!?) shot down by JG 27 and a Ju 88 of 2 (F)/ 123 shot down by FO Reed of 252 sqn.

Does anyone have any more information on these actions? Thanks in advance.
