На сајту usaaf.net је постављена хронологија борбених дејстава америчког ратног ваздухопловства током Другог светског рата. Први уноси за Југославију су од октобра 1943.
http://www.usaaf.net/chron/43/oct43.htm
За остале месеце само уместо oct43 укуцајте нпр. nov43 за новембар.
Подаци се настављају и за 1944-ту
http://www.usaaf.net/chron/44/jan44.htm
итд.
Оно што је битно је да су овде уписана тактичка дејства Twelfth Air Force, која је прва ступила у дејство у Југославији, почев од октобра 1943. Прва бомбардовања су била Скопље 18. октобра и Ниш 20. октобра 1943. Нисам сигуран да ли су обрађивана у овој теми, јер се ради о тактичким дејствима. Како је ово општи преглед, у њему се вероватно налазе само битнија дејства.
Стратешка дејства 15 ААФ која су почела крајем 43-е су већ обрађивана у овој теми.
У прилогу је избор тактичких дејстава 12 ААФ на територији Југославије у периоду октобар 1943. - март 1944. Унесени су само делови који се односе на Југославију. Могуће је да су нека дејства прескочена, ако нису уписана под Југославију.
