				Gentile of 4 FG vs. FW 190s, January 44 - when, where?
			 Some time in January 1944 Don Gentile of 4 FG had a close call with a pair of FW 190s - the uneven duel is described in the book about 4 FG called "1000 Destroyed". Unfortunately, it doesn't say when and where it took place. And who were the attackers. Any info? |
