Re: Allied bombing of german airfield in greece
You got it, Rudi. Athens-Kalamaki airfield in mid-November 1943. That's the answer.
Kalamaki:
15 Nov 43: bombed by 44 B-25 Mitchells from NATAF, mainly dropping fragmentation bombs – 6 x Do 217 E-1s, E-5s and K-3s from 5./KG 100, 1 x Ju 88 A-4 from 1./LG 1 and 1 x Ju 52 from I./TG 4 destroyed (3) or damaged (5) on the ground.
17 Nov 43: bombed by 81 B-25 Mitchells from NATAF dropping fragmentation bombs – 1 x Ju 88 A-14 from II./KG 51, 1 x Ju 52 from II./TG 2, 1 x Fi 156 from I./TG 4 and 2 x Ju 52s from II./TG 4 destroyed (4) or damaged (1) on the ground.
Athens-Kalamaki wasn't bombed again until 6 December 1943.
