Hi Horst,

Thank you for your detailed reply. Further investigation and study of the participating squadron ORB’s mention a frantic and vicious dogfight between the P-38’s and Me 109 & Fw 190’s.

It is obvious the escort did not just abandon the Lancaster’s as the reports seems to suggest, an easy assumption to make in the heat of battle.

ops:

Where were 376th based at this time.

Regards
