Re: Lancaster supply drop to Yugoslavia
Hello gents,
Of course there were Lancasters in MTO, but no operational sqn was based there. During 1943 Bomber Command flew shuttle raids to Blida, and 617 Sqn also flew some missions. There was also a mention of a Lancaster delivering leaflets and newspapers from Egypt to SD squadrons Italy. Also after the war Italy was full of Lancasters durig Operation Dodge. But this one supply dropper I look for (if existed) was probably one-off, possibly damaged during a raid to north Italy or Germany and landed in Italy, that could be repaired and put to some use, and I'm looking for documents that can (disa)proof that. Zoran
