There is a short note in today’s Montreal Gazette (May 1st) about Charley Fox’s investiture as Honorary Colonel of 412 Squadron. There is also a photo of him standing beside the painting of his attack on Rommel.

Richard Rohmer was a pilot of a reconnaissance P-51 in Normandy. If I remember correctly, he claims in his book Patton’s Gap, that he was the one who first saw the staff car that was carrying Rommel, and he was the one who directed the Spitfires onto the target.
