B-25G in the Aegean 1943-1944

Hi guys

I'm seeking accounts, articles, memoirs, anecdotes by US airmen who flew the B-25G in the Aegean.

I understand there is at least one article. Can someone help me please?

Cheers
Brian

Do you have any specific units in mind? The B-25G was a relatively late addition to the B-25 family. Perhaps this book will be helpful:

Hi Ed

The unit operating B-25G Strafers in early 1944 was 310th BG.

Is there coverage in said book?

Cheers
Brian

Hi Brian,


Regarding the book, I don't know. But now that I know which Bomb Group was involved, you can go here and select the appropriate squadron:

Thanks Ed

However, the 379thBS (involved in Aegean ops) fails to provide details of its ops apart from dates!

Is there another source?

Cheers
Brian
