Re: B-24 found off greece, see Fly Past..
Dear Dave
31 SAAF Liberator KH158 is not found yet.Its only a possibility that it MIGHT be in an Italian lake & investigations are in process -officially.
The supply drop mission on 12/10/44 was from Celone ,Foggia base to partisans in the north of Italy .Flight path via Elba .KH158's DZ was ENE of Genoa with 4 other plane crews but apparently supplies were not dropped there by crews because of poor ground visibilty but no proof available as far as I know .The weather turned bad with strong winds. Did KH158 get lost going or coming back ?
The SAAF Lib crews supply dropped in Yugoslavia -nearer Greece ? I will check my "The men who went to Warsaw" book for other missing SAAF Libs
I am the daughter of missing RAAF bombaimer of KH158 .
Regards
Anne
