After action combat reports?
They have them in The Battle of Britain by Len Deighton...but you'd have to go to an archive to get them...like the Bundesarchiv...

I'm lookin' for reports that say...

"this squadron took off from this airfield, flying these planes, and ran into enemy action here, shot down this number of enemy planes, and lost that number of planes"

get my drift? I'm wanting to do a F4U-1D Campaign for CFS2, but I can't find any reports...

Thats an after action combat report. Unit diaries ought to have similar things. Try your national library.
