AIR EVACUATION
In Yugoslavia, air evacuation by C-47s had been possible at three landing grounds since March 1944. A typical experience was that of Lt Delphon C. Kenney, who bailed out on the morning of 28 March near Delnice, Croatia. He landed near a small village and was immediately picked  up bv Partisans, who gave him lunch and took him to Delnice that afternoon,  Three davs later he was joined by 26 other people, British and American. The group stayed another six days in Delnice; during this time the town was bombed and strafed by the Germans, with considerable damage. About 7 April the party left Delnice by truck, but after ten or fifteen kilometers had to leave the truck and walk. In one of the towns they passed through, a British captain gave money and shoes to several members of the group--which by that time had grown to 77 persons. After crossing a German-held highway and railroad, they were ferried across a river and again traveled for awhile by truck. On 19 April they had a brush with the Germans, during which one man was wounded and another killed. The next day they reached the British mission, which was a five hours walk from Petrovac. The night of 21-22 ,April they went to Petrovac--part way by train; on the night of 27-28 April, they were evacuated by air to Brindisi, Italy.
