P-38 Mission, 28 Sep 44
I have a quick question. A P-38 group attacked a barracks in a forest in the vicinity of Norvenich, between Duren and Cologne, on 28 Sep 44. During the attack, the P-38s were fired on by several Hitler Youth with rifles who were digging trenches in the area. The P-38s responded by strafing them, killing over 40 personnel on the ground. Does anyone know which P-38 group (likely 9th AF) flew a mission that day in that area? I researched all three 474th FG squadron histories and concluded it was not them. This means it could only be the 367th FG or 370th FG. Thanks in advance for any help.
Cheers, Gary Koch |
