Re: Bombing of Seshcha airfield night of 23Jul43
I can only "assume" that the Pe-8's bombed the west and the B-25's and Il-4's the east. The fact that there is no known loss of a Me-110 for the IV/NJG5 on the 22July43, only leaves me to wonder if three crews mistook a crashing Il-4 for the one claimed shot down. At least one airfield had no aircraft destroyed. The Russian controller stated over "Seshcha" that their was a second airfield near the one they bombed but they assumed it was a decoy and no one bombed it.
