Re: Malta Aircraft Defence
Hi Jim,
while I´m reading "The Mediterranean and Middle East, Volume II - The Germans come to the help of their ally 1941", I only saw informations about the arrangements neccesary to have the american build types fighters in action: service, repair, improvement to desert conditions, pilots, ...
All these contitions were a challenge in Egypt. To have them beeing cared on Malta would have for sure further a huge influence on the supply-flow by convoys etc. to Malta.
And there were periods in 1941, while the Italians were the only attackers by air on Malta.
Regards
Darius
