Re: Friendly fire WWII
Hi Brian,
I will be interested in the list of crew and passengers of this Condor. Still finding new (for me) cases. 30th May 1944 At 4:00, the german operation starts after a 20min artillery barrage and air strikes. I./KG4's He 111 bomb enemy artillery positions, claiming an enemy fighter during the mission. The first two german fighter claims around the end of the artillery preparation are a Sturmovik and a Airacobra. During the first two hours, three times Stukas attack own troops, once even a first-aid station. Two of these friendly-fire incidents affect 23.PzDiv, which is operating on the right wing of the ground forces. Reportedly, this is caused by romanian Stukas, who themselves loose four planes in 93 sorties during the day. Source: http://www.yogysoft.de/Bessarabia_5-2.htm Best regards Laurent |
