Pilot Dunn Joins Foe To Get Photo In Sardinia
Lieut. Col. Frank L. Dunn of San Antonio evaded detection on a photographic mission for the United States Army Air Forces by joining a flight of enemy planes circling to land near Cagliari Sardinia. He completed the mission, escaped, and earned the Distinguished Flying Cross for information on enemy shipping. Weather and low altitude photography limited earlier attempts. Dunn flew at 100 feet or less over the seaplane base and near Axis aircraft before the harbor photo proved invaluable.
