Re: Caldwell mission : 5th December 1941

Sadly Alexander's book on Caldwell doesn't provide any details of German or Italian units. It deals with the air battle of 5 December purely from the point of view of Caldwell combat report and memory, and the various article's of newspapers of the time.

Right, this is why asked on 12Oclock the question. Actually, we can find a lot of information on the 5th December morning mission from the RAF side, but it is much more difficult to find explicit reference to it from the axis side.
It is always more interesting to have the account of such a "famous" mission from both sides

I thank all of you very much for having taken the time to look for those information
