Re: Why is the 15th AAF neglected by aviation historians?
Any Italian equivalent of Roger Freeman would have been too busy scavenging for food etc to pay much attention to recording aerial activity. Poor old Italy was seriously wrecked as the Allies moved north. My Dad saw it at first hand and did some of it with his artillery unit. Agreed that the 15th needs a proper history. I can recommend two excellent novels - The Gunner (author?)and the The Sky is a Lonely Place by Louis Falstein. They both show how rough the war was for the 15th.
