Re: Watch recovered from 1944 C-47 crash
The SAS operation was called " Pomegranate " operation. Only two of six parachutists arrived to S. Egidio airport (Perugia). Only two planes Ju.88 and Fi 156 exploded. The other nine planes mined, including other six Ju. 88 . didn't explode because the mines were quickly de-fused ba german soldiers after the explotion that killed Widdrinton iniured Hughes during the de-fusing the rest of mines not used, before escape from the airfield. I discovered the crash site of C 47 dropping the six SAS's parachutists.
