Re: US fifth army, Spitfire crash in Italy

Spitfire LF.IX PT839 of 87 Squadron, hit by flak and crashlanded 22/11/1944.
As this was an RAF aircraft there will not be an MACR.
Instead, brief details will be in the Squadron Operations Record Book, AIR27/713, the relevant section should be available for download for a small fee from the National Archives.

Sean.
