Re: US C-47 shot down by RAF 29 October 1942

Thanks Leendert

My information on this incident adds:

"At the subsequent court martial the errant pilot was completely exonerated as the American aircraft was 150 miles off course and had failed to display the mandatory identification codes."

Cheers
Brian
