May I ask what purpose this line of enquiry is leading to. Not wishing to fan the flames of this rather contentious issue I am sure that every airforce is guilty of this type of action in one way or another.
The strafing of German refugees from Dresden by US fighters in February 1945 springs to mind, truth or fiction, the strafing of trains in the occupied regions of France, Belgium and Holland by Mosquito’s / Tempest’s of the 2nd TAF where not these trains carrying ‘innocent’ civilians. ?
From my own research I have documents relating to certain individuals on a certain heavy bomber squadron purposely returning from raids at low level so they could strafe trains and motor transport.
I agree these actions should be reported and open to discussion, however lets not restrict ourselves to one particular airforce.
