Sharon,
It appears that P-26 pilots claimed some air victories in the Philippines in early December 1941, but not at Pearl Harbor. Regards, Leendert |

Sharon -
2 American Civilian Light Aircraft were also shot down by Japanese A/C with loss of lives and 2 were forced to Land. One of them was a Interstate Cadet Piloted by Cornelia Fort. She later became a WASP and was first one to be KIS on 3/21/43.An Airpark in Nashville , TE. is named for Her. Mike |
