Re: Loss of GM Kurt Thomas in 1943
One of the other Beaufighter crews (F/O M.J Gloster DFC and F/S R.B. Wall) of the same squadron on patrol 60 miles N of Cap Bizerte saw gun flashes from light naval vessels off the Aegadean [sic?] Islands early on the morning of 6 May. I wonder if the Baldus Ju-52 might have been the victim of sea - air fratricide as it was supposed to be flying from Sardinia to Tunis? Just a thought.
