"Twelve to One" isn't a listing of aces in the 5th AF. It would be more correctly described as a compilation of tactical reports from the field laying out what the folks of the "pointy end" found worked and didn't work. I've also got a copy.
No it's not a listing of aces. But the aces who did write those reports are listed in the index. So I looked for the pilot there. If the pilot was included in the book, there would be a pretty detailed one page biography which would have supplied the poster with useful info.
