Re: MACR P38 crashed around Salerno?
Regarding the two P-38s that went down on 9-9-43.
Both 693 for 42-13411 and 698 for 43-2155 report that the planes went down 30 miles East of Agropoli Italy. They were strafing a 400 vehicle convoy on the road. The pilot for 42-13411 was seen to bail out. The pilot of 43-2155 was apparently killed in the crash of his plane.
