0:15. Ops from Licata, Protect the Fleet
1:<b>15. Ops from Licata, Protect the Invasion Fleet.</b><br><br>Time: 0730 hours<br>Date: 22 July 1943<br>Weather:  Medium patchy clouds from 4000 to 6000 feet with light rain.<br> Location:  Licata airbase, Sicily<br><br>     Once the Allies established an beachhead in Sicily on 10 July 1943 the 99th FS was kept busy patroling over the invasion fleet and transport vechicles to keep the Luftwaffe from harrassing them.  Additionally continued dive bombing and ground support missions would be the order of the day for the 99th FS.<br><br>    Today the 99th FS will be patrolling over the landing beaches to protect our ships and equpment being unloaded there.  For the first time we've received new aircraft, well not entirely new, but new to us, the P-47 Razorback thanks to the 325th FG.  Our ground crews have been working around the clock to get them air-worthy and combat ready and have replaced the black and yellow checkered tail of the 325th FG with our new group color, all RED.  We've gotten six of these planes with four being readied for use in today's patrol together with a flight of P-40's.  Lt.Col. Davis wants to make transition of the squadron into the Thunderbolts as quick as possible, so you can expect more flight time in these aircraft.  Perhaps the appearance of the P-47 will come as a surprise for the Germans, as the Luftwaffe has increased it's presence over the fleet and the landing beaches the last few days, so be on high alert.  Good Luck.
