RAf raid Velletri 21 May 1944
Accounts vary as to whether these were USAAF Baltimores or RAF/SAAF. I believe the later. I do not at this moment have my MAW volumes available therefore can I ask for more details of the Baltimore formations of this RAF raid? A raid that cost the LW dear. I assume the Baltimores were from the Desert Air Force.

Re: RAf raid Velletri 21 May 1944
The source of the 24 Baltimores was 145 Sqns ORB, which says 145 was area cover for 24 Baltimores which had not arrived by 1830 when they attacked the fighters. None of the Baltimore Sqn ORBs or that of 3 SAAF Wing have any bombing raids in the air after 1735, so I do not know who the bombers were, unless they were Amerian mediums. I would love to know an answer....
