Luftwaffe Unit victory over 44th BG B-24 March 19,1945
This morning, the LA Times published the obituary of Bernard W. Bail, who just died at the age of 100. During WWII, he was a radar-navigator on B-24J 42-51907,44th BG, which was shot down by 3 Bf109s after leaving the target after the loss of two engines. It was the only B-24 lost on this date by the 44th BG. First Lieutenant Bail was the only officer survivor out of four survivor. one who died subsequently. Any ideas as to the identity of the Bf109 unit?
