"escort duty to four U.S.A.A.F. Baltimores over Velletri on 21 May, 1944"

Were the USAAF flying Baltimores on this raid?

regards

S.A.A.F. Baltimores more likely?

USAAF had B-25s and B-26s in Italy as medium bombers.

Regards,
Leendert

Thanks Leendert, that was my understanding too, with perhaps A-20 Havocs also? Nick Beales Ghostbomber resource states 24 Baltimores but does not claim they are USAAF. That seems to confirm they were Baltimores and probably RAF/SAAF.

best regards

Keith
