This flight scored a total of 72 victories against Japanese aircraft, of which Foss accounted for 26 personally, most of them Zero fighters. Foss was awarded the Medal of Honour and later returned to combat flying, although he was unable to further increase his personal score. Foss survived the war and lived to 87.
