A month before my father died of cancer he talked about the P-51,P-47,Spitefires and Mosquitoes coming in from England.The mortality rate of the fighter squadrons would have been unbelieveable escorting the bombers in and Scraffing runs on the way back. Triple A fire was estimated at bursts every 100' and twenty miles lenght at operating levels. The first wave of fighters where to remove Triple A threat with 100% mortality rate. |
