Fly over Biferno river_WWII Campomarino airfields

IWM (CNA2528)

Martin Baltimore Mark IVs of No 223 Squadron RAF based at Celone Italy flying over the mouth of the Biferno River whilst en route up the Adriatic coast to attack the railway and sidings at Montesilvano Marina, north of Pescara. It is worth nothing the runway of Biferno airfield, the line between the wings of the planes, and above the tail of the plane to the right, the first and shorter horizontal line being the runway of Canne airfield, the longer and much further away being the runway of Madna airfield.
