Re: Ten. Carlos Braganilli Italian fighter pilot 1940

Thanks guys

But I don't believe either is correct. The Blenheim in question (that flown by Campbell) was shot down by a G.50, and the pilot who visited Campbell was a Tenente.

Cheers

Broganelli Elio was a Tenente in 1940-41 but he served with 3° Gruppo CT and never fought in the war against Greece.

I don't know whether there was another Tenente Broganelli in R. Aeronautica.

Thanks Gianandrea et al

I think the name must be fictitious, although the incident genuine.

More research required!

Cheers
