what operations could he have been in? He died without saying anything about his jump(s). The only clue i know is his words of "the most fear I ever felt was jumping into active anti-air and MG tracer fire, knowing I could not steer the parachute to avoid it." Obviously the Italians were not known for their prowess in WWII and made few airborne assaults. It was not late in the war enough to be under the auspices of the Germans because he deserted and was arrested by them when Italy did the ol' switchario. So where could he have been dropped and fought?
