I was the pilot A.C. (the boss). The only time I saw Italians was on my first mission. He flew in just far enough to get a few bullet holes and then left.
My personal opinion is that the Italian people are among the warmest people that one could find. Two years ago I was invited to come to Italy as a guest of the Historical Society of Reggio Emilia (city) because I bombed their city in Jan 1944
