Hi all,

On 29 April 1944, a B-24 Liberator was shot down on the return flight from Berlin.

Who could have had the possibility to shoot down those plane ?

Thanks for replies,

All the best,

This B-24 was piloted by Fred Shere. I don't know his rank.

Re: Fred Shere

There were in the region of 30 claims for B-24s on this date-you will need to be more specific as to a time or location of crash/combat
