Wednesday March 9th, 2010 10:00pm Eastern in SEA II Snapshot - "Picciatelli over Malta" Hosted by 68Hawk.
Italian forces launch a strike on British port facilities on the tiny island of Malta with JU87s and their new C202 fighters.  British forces on the island are heavily outnumbered, fatigued and ill supplied, but still possess some airworthy Hurricane MkIIc.  Malta is a thorn in the side of German plans for the theater, and a key to reestablishing British dominance in the Mediterranean.  Will they be able to hold out against the onslaught of the Regia Aeronautica?
Snapshots are walk on events and all are welcome. Forums are located Here
