Does anyone have any records (or know where to look) for a list of gunners/crewmembers claims on shot down fighters (both confirmed and unconfirmed)?

I wrote to the NARA awhile back requesting any type of de-briefing documentation, but all I could secure was a microfilm roll of documentation on the 401st.

I bought the film and looked through it, but found no indications of who claimed to have shot down enemy fighters.

Just wondering where those records would be and what they might be titled.

Thanks for any help.

So far I have been unable to find a source for the information that you are looking for. I asked a tailgunner friend of mine and he didn't know either. He had no reference material that showed this information. If I find something I will let you know
