Default RE: Knowledge Quiz for Warbird wiz

Okay the 12th Air Force split into. The split became known as the 15th Air Force. The 15th being mostly for the strategicbombing targets that the 8th Air Force could not reach such as the Ploesti oilfields. The group I am looking for was in the 15th Air Force based in Italy during 1944. Your right there were more than one groups that used the same insigniafor group and squadrons but it was not common. Here is another clue. Tail marking was a square above a circle. Their base was in Spinazolla, Italy. Dead giveaway!
