Description
Cutella Airfield, Italy. 29 April 1944. One of the rare occasions for ground staff of No. 3 Squadron RAAF to distinguish themselves came from an unfortunate error. A United States Army Air Force (USAAF) Republic P47 Thunderbolt strafed Cutella airfield, bombing one Curtiss P40 Kittyhawk and setting it alight. Two other Kittyhawks were unshackled and rolled to safety.
