Why is the 15th AAF neglected by aviation historians?
While reading the post on the book on losses of 8th and 9th Air Forces, the question arouse (again): why is the 15th AAF so much neglected?

This high unit made an outstanding performance during W.W. 2, which would fully deserve a detailed account, or more. However, so far - except for one slim booklet I am aware of - it was neglected by historians (except for a few Group histories and aces' stories).

What would be the reason for this?
