Fighter Units & Pilots of the 8th Air Force
Hi,
I would like to ask if anybody has following book Miller, Kent D. Fighter Units & Pilots of the 8th Air Force: September 1942 - May 1945, two volumes. Atglen, PA: Schiffer Military History, 2001 and can check for me if there is any info about Capt. J. O. Ruscitto, 350th FS, 353rd FG. If yes, would be possible to copy or rewrite this info? I suppose he claimes approx 3 victories and also on 18 Sept 44 he was shot down and evaded. TIA Pavel
