Was no exactly like that . On Oc 14, 44 52 P-51 of 332nd FG left Ramitelli to escort 49th BW to Odertal refineries .Lt Rual Bell P-51B-10 100th FS 43-25073 bailed out
due what he later claimed to be a mechanical failure and was rescued by the Chetniks of D.Mihailovic . In reality he was shot down by Shadrin , upon returning
to his Sqd. December 44 while debfriefed by Intel in Bari he gave out questionable grounds as into the event.
Hope thats helps
