Re: Airfield Strafing Victims
Hi Rod --
Interesting discrepancy. The 55th FG followed the 1st BD B-17s with 500# frag clusters and strafing. They were credited with 4 Bf 109s and 2 s/e u/i destroyed and 1 Ju 88 damaged. I can see how the Luftwaffe recorded this as one large attack, but the misidentified types can't be explained -- Me 262s were certainly distinctive targets, and P-51 pilots were eager to claim them. So it goes.... -- Don
