Two Bf109s shot down Italy

On 10th May 1944 242 Sqd RAF were escorting B-25s on a bombing mission to Terni . During the return flight F/Sgt Doherty reported seeing 2 109s and was told to engage them along with his wingman . Both the 109s dropped their belly tanks were chased for 50 miles and were shot down with their pilots baling out . Are any details of the loss of these two 109s known please,

Regards
Brian Bines
