Source: 10° Stormo by Cesare Gori and 173a Sq. RST by G. Garello
On 20 november 1942 two Ca.314, one of the 57a Sq., 32° Gruppo 10° Stormo and one of the 173a Sq. RST ("aggregata" to the 10° Stormo) were missing during a convoy escort mission out of the Sicily coast.
All the crewmembers didn't returned - 3 of the 57a and 5 of the 173a Sq. (one of them flying with the aircraft of the other unit)- amongst them the 57a Sq. commander, cap. pil. Guglielmo Rotondo.
