It's a myth that gets recycled every now and then. A crackpot comes on the forum claiming its veracity and then disappears again. You can find reference to it on the forum. That doesn't mean it happened though.
 
If it wasn't for Mr. Caidin, I wouldn't have known LW pilots referred to the P-39 as "Der BlahendRusselkafer", and other facts.

I need a couple of umlauts but I don't know how.

Something I found interesting, was the love story built up around around the Italian mystery P-38.

The true story about Col. Tondi and his P-38 may not be all that interesting BUT I feel something important and more fascinating was missed because of the mythical story that spun off of the actual P-38 sightings.

At the time that there were genuine sightings of an unknown Italian P-38, including an attack on an American bomber, Savoia-Marchetti was testing their SM.91, which bore a striking resemblance to a P-38.
 
If it's a Windows system, try this:

Hold down the "alt" key on your keyboard and type one of these codes:

  • ä : Alt + 0228
  • ö : Alt + 0246
  • ü : Alt + 0252
  • ß : Alt + 0223
  • Ä : Alt + 0196
  • Ö : Alt + 0214
  • Ü : Alt + 0220
I'm tryin' it. Believe it or not, this bottom tier keyboard don't have no "alt" key. Some interestingly labeled keys don't remember seeing. I've been pressing them and entering the code but no love. I'll ask Siri later.
