Re: Friendly fire WWII

Hi Kyrre

Thanks for the stream of incidents. However, I do have note of all mentioned, but please keep me advised of any others you may come across. Don't work too hard - it makes me feel guilty!!

Have a nice one

Brian

Re: Friendly fire WWII

Two webpages in Russian, Google translation is your friend

On 6 August 1945, two Soviet patrol boats were attacked by US aircraft off the Pacific coast of USSR, and 8 (or 11) Soviet sailors were killed, while they claimed an aircraft shot down.

Still needing some research on this case.

Best regards

On 21 September 1944 the Soviet submarine ShCh-402 was sunk off Norway, probably by Soviet Bostons.

Re: Friendly fire WWII

It's just one of these days... a third case for today:

1st Lt Joseph Andrew Dugan of 310th FS, 58th FG was killed on 10 January 1945 when his P-47D-15 42-23220 was shot down over Lingayen Gulf, Luzon, Philippine Islands by friendly fire from U.S. Navy fighters.
