Seems "fragging" wasn't an American invention then.

Good to hear the proffesionals make mistakes, too.

In 1940 two German destroyers were sunk by a Heinkel He-111. Friendly-fire incidents abound in every war.

This is from the channel dash in 42

HMS Walpole was ordered back to Harwich at 1318 when a main bearing burned. During her return voyage she was attacked by 2 RAF Wellington bombers, which made several runs and scored near misses. The bombers were driven off by a flight of Me 109’s, which gave the ship close air cover until they ran short of fuel and had to return to base
