12th and 107th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadrons - Beginning of 1944

[Henofred]

Hello/Bonjour Alex,

Thank you for this initial and very interesting comment. "The 9th Air Force in WWII" Kenn C. Rust book states that - at the beginning - from the four Squadrons of the Group, the 12th and 107th TRS were operational in January, in April for the 15th and 109th TRS. I tends to believe him because I have in hands an aerial picture taken by the 67 TRG (without any other mention on the back of the photo) and according to the shadows of trees - which are without leaves, this picture seems to have been taken during the first weeks of 1944. I can be affirmative because at the time the picture was taken the target is intact. This target was later bombed, in anticipation of D-Day.

Best regards,
Frederic
