Re: Woodbine red leader - a story of a Mustang Ace
Denes:
I am leafing thru my copy right now; it appears during the time in question (from 8/12/44 to 8/16/44) the author was flying in support of "Operation Dragoon", the allied landings in Southern France;prior to Dragoon he flew to Ploesti on 8/10/44 and he had a mission to Ploesti on August 19 that was only opposed by Flak; those were his last missions to Ploesti and his very last combat sorte was flown on 8/21/44 to Nis', in Yugoslavia;
Hope this helps a little;
NickM
