Re: 14th FG P-38 lost on 15 june 1943
Alex and Carlos,
thank you for your answers. Yes, I'm trying to collect some additional informations in order to identify the P-38 landed at Capoterra on 12 june 1943. Does anyone know anything more from american side about that episode? The pilot became a POW and the aircraft - as each historian of Regia Aeronautica knows- was used shortly by R.A. Thank you in advance. PS: the aircraft had Squadron code painted on the tail boom but it had been covered by darker paint by the italians. From a picture the code could be LM or UN (respect. 71st and 94th FS) but it's not sure because the paint has already covered it when the picture was taken. However, the documents contained in the microfilms of the AFHRA records of these two units (and of the other units of the 1st and 14th FG) don't mention this episode at all. |
