Re: Breach of international rules of war?
I do not know if it was true or not, but re-reading the book of G/C Johnie Johnson ( yes, the top ace ) "Wing Leader" I found that his Wing shot down a Bf 109 with RAF roundels. This ever happened? I saw several pictures of G-10 with RAF roundels, but the aircraft were on the ground: captured aircraft transferred for evaluation, like so many He 219, Ta-154, Me 262, etc...( Whatson īs wizzards ). But, this incident - the interception of Bf 109 with RAF roundels happened after D-Day. I will find on the book and quote properly here later...
Yes, Franek, I think it was from Wiesbaden ( will check on his letters later ); but he wrote a PR.9. I even mentioned the special PR.19 Meteor, but he confirmed PR.9 Camberra. Strange, isnīt it? I mean, being USAF, they certainly would fly their own machines, not a foreign one...Do you have any DATA about those "American" built Camberras flying at Wiesbaden?
We will keep in touch...
