    From a USA fighter crash site in Salerno area
    This crash site we can find with help of a old man that was a child when aircraft go down.

    It is crashed about 15 km sout east of Salerno, september 1943.

    The old man said us that he seen a USA and a German aircraft fought in the sky. Then the USA aircraft go very near to the ground and take a steel cable put in the valley and crashed. He remember that there was at least a dead body from the aircraft. Actually we have not other informations.

    Here are the fragments after a first reconnaissance. Some idea about aircraft type??

    This appear to be a cover. Colour grey or blue\grey. Measure 17x11 cm. Number 56 painted



    Rear. Yellow.



    Code 89C222 4 5



    Code S9085



    Fragment of fuselage. Colour grey\blu covered with colour yellow.



    Fragment of alluminium.



    Code 931 631 66....



    Code circled R 199



    Code circled M



    Small fragments



    Bullets of 12,7 mm



    All marked S L 43



    We are not sure these object we find in crash site are from aircraft. Some idea about black plastic object?
