B-24 forced down intact in Italy
Gentlemen,
this issue may have been discussed before here or on the old LEMB forum; however, since I cannot find it anywhere I would like to ask the following question: On 12 July 1944 German - or Italian ? - fighters forced an allied aircraft, allegedly an undamaged B-24, to land at an airfield in Northern Italy. A note from a former pilot of I./JG77 claims that it was his Gruppe which was repsonsible for this feat, stating that it was a B-24. Can anybody enlighten me as to the whereabouts of this incident ? Was it really a B-24 and if so - which unit, serial no. etc. Any further information aailable on this incedent - unit involved, where did it land etc. Any help would be gratefully appreciated. KR Jochen Prien
