Re: Me 109 destroyed Piraeus, Greece 11 Jan 44
Lowell,
I presume you have the book written by Joe Baxley in 1992? Joe was also in the 419th BS, 301st BG. His mission report #203 of Jan 11, 1944 describes the mission as encountering extremely bad weather, losing one B-17 due to a mid-air collision, and observing 40 E/A but due to the escorting P-38s, not more than 12 actually attacked the formation. The weather on the return also caused much difficulty. If you have the book, go to page 148 which has my recollection of the 419th mission on 26 July and which an episode of Dog Fights is based on. Cordially, Art Fiedler
