Re: SM81 loss 26/9/41
Hi Alex!
In the brandnew book "Il Savoia Marchetti S.M. 79 nel secondo conflitto mondiale" (SM79 in the Second World War") by Cesare Gori, I read that on 26 september 1941 a S.M. 79 of the 174a Squadriglia R.S.T. with the unit commander Cap. Ronzi made a long recce fligth from Gialo, overflying Cufra, Robiaia and Bir Zighen. A short combat with two Gladiator from Cufra happened during this mission but no damage to the aircraft is mentioned. I think that the claim made by Sgt Walter is probably related to this mission. Best Regards Gianandrea Bussi
