Re: French Air Force --Oran -- Operation Torch
According to the story I have been able to reconstruct from a couple of reluctant witnesses, the C-47 were flying when first attacked. Then, the D.520s decided to make two more passes, strafing planes and men on the ground.
Most of the GC III/3 pilots I interviewed either ignored this incident (or pretended to) or refused to talk about it. That's obviously something they were not too proud of.
