Re: Mustang Ia of F/O Alan Ronan Brodrick (2 Squadron)

Adriano

On 7/8/44 F/Off A R Brodrick flew a TacR mission with F/Off R G West in Mustang IIs (P-51A) FR913 and FR923 over Northern France. They ran into accurate medium and light flak and the sqn diary records without making it clear which pilot that he was "hit in four places" and the a/c was "hit in the scoop and hood shot off".

FR913 is recorded as Cat AC. It was sent to repair units but eventually SOC as CatE.

I would be interested to know why you are interested in this incident?

Steve
