P-38 landed at Capoterra on 12 june 1943
In order to illustrate the similar thread I've begun some time ago, I post the picture of this aircraft I've mentioned.
The overpainted code seems to be from 71th or 94th Squadron (LM - UN).
The picture was taken at Capoterra by S.Ten Pierpaolo Paravicini from 360a Sq. CT. before the aircraft was flown to italian mainland: he gave me it with some other shots.
It has been published in 1981, with some other, in the italian magazine Aerofan and then in the book "Pantere", written by me with a friend and published in 2001.
Till today the identity of this plane and of his pilot is not known.
