332nd FG losses on 14 August 1944?

Can anyone confirm the names of any airmen of this Group brought down — by Flak I think — on this date? I've variously read that one or two aircraft were lost.

The one name I have is Lieutenant Robert O'Neill although I can't remember where I got that from.

Hello Nick,

Lt. Clarence Allen bailed over Elba and Robert O'Neil who crash landed on the beach near Toulon were both rescued by the Free French.
