Re: Friendly fire WWII
You win the prize for guessing. Seriously, "Smoke" was my father. Received the attached from Michal Rak re friendly fire dogfight. as I recall reading the ORB, it wasn't a jump and shoot deal. It was a real "battle". I have since found the ORB page about the incident , but it is hardly readable in my copy.
"And the friendly fire accident you mentioned is between F/O F.L.Vaupel and F/O Powell from 421 squadron( NOTEd as 412 in ORB) on 17 june 1943? Or some other? "
