Re: March3,1943 Spanish He-112 victory over a USAAF P-38
What I wrote in my book, 'He 112 In Action', by Squadron/Signal, 1996, was that the P-38F-1Lo was part of the 14th F.G., 12th A.F., based on Youk-les-Bains (French Algeria), a unit integrated into the N.W.Af.A.A.F. - a mixed Anglo-American unit.
The damaged Lightning reportedly belly landed on the Algerian shore of the Mulluya River. Next day, the wreck was reportedly recovered by US troops.
