Eventually he became too suspicious and they shot him down though

On August 11, 1943, an Italian captured P-38 flown by Angelo Tondi shot down B-17F 42-30307 “Bonnie Sue” (97th BG, 414th BS).

He must have been just as worried about being shot down by his own side as the enemy, considering how distinctive the Lightning's appearance is
