Don't assume that, ABMM! I know you're talking about guns but that's it! LOL. We'll have to wait for P-51's adjudication.

 

Correct Andy! also know as the Sturmgewehr 44. Your question


Infantry Small Arms Infanteriewaffen Sturmgewehr

Sturmgewehr StG 44 Assault Rifle

 

Who was the first New Zealander to be shot down and killed in the war? What was he flying?

 

Sorry to hijack the thread for a moment, can everyone please go back to post 1 in this thread by David Layne and have a quick read of what I put there, then PM me if you think its a bad idea? All purely theoretical, but if you think the ideas could work then please let me know.:noidea:

 

Sounds good to me.

When numbers increase, the time limit can be lowered to 48 hours then twenty four.

 

Perhaps we should title it "Quiz" and delete the "Do we have"

 

Sounds good, Kitty. Agree with DL's post directly above too.

 

ok lads, will wait for a few others to read then sort it

 

You're not just a pretty face are you David.

 

Glass of water for Mr Spidge.

 

Bump........

 

I quite agree!

 

What the man said

 

O.K. Time to kickstart this thread again.

Who? What? When? Where?

 

Brize Norton? Whitleys training paratroops or set up for towing gliders? Say...mid '42 onwards after Whitleys removed from bomber ops.

 

Whitleys is correct as is 1942. Looking for a little more.

 

getting ready to drop paras for D-Day?

 

No Kitty, good guess but we have already established it was 1942 and using Whitleys that went out of service in 1942.

A clue is that it is an operational para drop they are about to make.

 

Paras preparing to embark on 51 Squadron Whitleys for the Bruneval Raid

 

Correct Kyt. A little known about raid.
