Bf-109G Strafing Attack Jan 25 1944 Italy
On January 25,1944 the 82nd FG base at Lecce was strafed by a Bf-109 equipped with a belly tank. The pilot was shot down by Beaufighters.
From Air Classics Publication Victorious Eagles -1990 "The report came later that the 109 pilot had flown in from Greece on his lone mission." In the book Adorimini: the Historyof the 82nd FG, the attack is reported as on Jan 11,1944. Which is correct? Anyone know anymore about the incident.
