Re: Friendly fire WWII
Hi Mark
Mosquito NT179 of 21 Sqn to which you refer was shot down by 219 Squadron Mosquito HK250 on 28/29 Sepetmber 1944. I have had a quick check and have found that a P-61 attacked and damaged a 488 Squadron Mosquito on 26 June 1944, though Mossie was able to land safely. No idea which US crew was responsible. I also have note of two other Mossies that fell to Allied night fighters about which I lack detail, so either, neither or both may have been P-61 victims. 16/17 June 1944 Mosquito of 409 Squadron shot down and POW. 6/7 March 1945 Mosq MM237 of 105 Sqn - crew injured. I hope to get to Kew next week and will have a look at 157 Squadron's ORB more more details of the Mossie loss on 8 September 1944. Thanks for the lead anyway. Cheers Happy New Year Brian
