Any claims by Germans on this date?

In the book "Sharks among Minnows" (page 39 - 40) it is mentioned that Gustav Leffers shot down a B.E.2 on 29.12.1915 (his second victory). The name of the pilot was Second Lieutenant David A. Glen, who was killed by a shot through the heart. The observer Sergeant E. Jones survived with injuries and became a POW.

Thanks for confirmation!
Did Leffers belong to a JASTA? an ace?

When Ltn. Gustav Leffers shot down Second Lieutenant David A. Glen he was serving with FFA 32. Jastas were not "created" before summer 1916.
