Re: Looking for 2 US bombers lost 2 March 1944

Thanks again Mike - I think these are the other 2 aircraft.

I mean, according to some USAAF sources that I found, 4 bombers were lost during the various missions on 30 March 1944. Seems 2 collided and 2 were shot - the 2nd pair are the ones I am looking for.

The two that collided were from the 2nd BG, 20th Squadron, as stated in the MACR report.

But the assault on Sofia, Bulgaria, was done by 456th BG aircraft - just found this in the footnote.com site, from picture and document from the NASM archives.

P.S. Just found that the 456th BG has a site, even a very small forum. I hope they would have some further information
