Re: Italian ANR Questions
A better RAF equivalent for Aviere will be the rank of Aircraftman.
The casualty on the 18/11/44 was probably during the bombing of Aviano airfield (base of II° Gpo) by the 15th AF.
If the honor roll you are talking about is the fascist honor roll of the 'Elenco caduti' website, take care that not all these casualties died.
The 6th column of the table means the fate of the casualty:
C = caduti (fallen)
F = feriti (wounded)
D = ... (didn't remember, means missing)
The two casualties on 12 May 1944, the one on 16 June, the one on 18 November have for casualty code 'B', I don't know what it means.
The casualty on 23 February 1945 has a code 'M', I don't know what it means either.
On 21 July 1944, 1^Av Egido Moretti of 3° Gpo.Ct died on Cervere airfield. In fact this Gruppo wasn't formed before August but Cervere was the base of the Gruppo Complementare Caccia (a training unit) that was renamed III] Gruppo Caccia on 11 August. So Moretii was probably a member of this unit.
