Hi from Sicily!
 
Has anybody the missions list of the 98th BG during WWII?
I'm looking for the unit that bombed Comiso A/F (Sicily) on July 9, 1943.
I believe it was the 98th BG: can you confirm it?
Thank you!
CIAO!

According to my records, the 98th DID raid Comiso Air Drome on 9 July 1943 with 26 B-24s involved

Thank you Herb!

Do you know also if the attacched photo of a raid over Comiso A/D was taken by a B-24 of the 98th BG?
