Re: Unknown aircraft Dubrovnik 28.11.1943.
There apparently is an error in the MACR. The MACR as typed shows 41-10453 but there is correction comment in the version in fold3.com giving the number as 42-10453. When you put your cursor over the serial number in the MACR, the correction window pops up.
The eye-witness statement by Lt Novy (MACR page 7) refers to Turner's plane as #32, which appears to be the number of the plane in the picture. The MACR in the National Archives does not show the "correction". https://catalog.archives.gov/id/90905529 For those with fold3, here is the MACR page that "pops up" the correction. https://www.fold3.com/image/28701175 Sorry for the confusion. |

Antun, do you live near the supposed crash-site? If yes, I would talk to local fishermen and see if anyone knows of a wreck in that area. Danny
