Dear All,
On 6 July'41, the 260/450 Sqdn took off at dawn to perform a straffing mission over Baalbeck and satellites/looseness airfields. 1 Martin 167F from GBI/39 & 9 LeO451 were damaged.
They followed then the valley and reached the Talia airfield where 4 Hurricanes straffed 5 Potez 25TOE & 1 Amiot143. Sgt Patterson reported damage due to glare of shell during this mission.
- Does anyone knows the name of these 4 pilots (3 in addition to Sgt Pattereson) who performed this straffing mission?
- Which version of Hurricane they used to do this mission?
Thanking you in advance
Cheers
Jerome
