Re: Viterbo 19 February 1944

To have a more complete view of this day. II/JG 77 claimed three B-25s shot down in the morning (between 0942-0950 hrs). They intercepted 321st BG that lost at this time 3 B-25s (1 missing, 1 to Flak and 1 to Flak and fighters) and reported being intercepted by 15-20 fighters, claiming 7 Bf 109 and 2 Fw 190 shot down by return fire.

Gunner claims are often exagerated but it is fairly possible that some German losses this day were during this battle.
