A ?? RE: Allied flak coverage in Tunisia...
Guys:
Just had a SILLY thought, generated by my latest Re-reading of the FWs in North Africa book by Andrew & Morten & that has to do with the Allies flak protection from the LW's ground attack missions in Tunisia;
It seems that every attack against a convoy in Tunisia by III/SKG 10 & other units was met by lotsa ground fire(OF COURSE!!) but I wondered how the Flak was deployed: Was it 'deployed' along the route of march in 'overwatch fashion, did they have mobile flak units that could fire while on the move or were they just traveling with the convoys & when planes appeared they 'unlimbered' & brought into action as fast as was humanly possible?
Hope this question isn't TOO goofy!
