France, 11 & 12 July 1944 - losses of a P 51 and a P 47

Hello,

Pilots of the 10./JG 11 claimed a P-47 on 11 July 1944 at 17h38, and a P-51 on 12 july 1944 at 9h59, both in the area 04 Ost N/GA (roughly West - center West of France). I search any information about these losses : precise place, unit of these concerned USAAF aircraft, identity and fate of their pilots.

May be the P-51 belonged to a RAF Squadron ...

Thanks in advance

Pierre
