Dear Mr. Lancaster, I would like to introduce myself: My name is Ago Alberti, I am disturbing you from Italy. I am a teacher keen on aviation history and have listened with great attention your WWII account. It would be great, for me, to asko you some questions... For example, do you remember when your crew was forced to bail out? And the mission? I am investigating around a B-24 Liberator bomber that crashed close to an hamlet nemed Rondinaia, along the Adriatic side of Italy. The bomber did crashed just South of the on February 16, 1945, at about 16:30. That B-24 had a nickname: ”Super Natural”. Would you like, please, to assist me in my research? From the other side of the World, with deep respect, Ago Alberti
