HELL FROM ABOVE: The RAF Descends on Dumenko's Tsaritsyn Offensive, 1919 For a brief moment of time, the Red Army posed a serious threat to Tsaritsyn when the Dumenko Horse Corps had slipped through a large gap in the patchy front lines between the White Caucasian and Don Armies near the Don river. This large gap allowed Dumenko’s three cavalry brigades and a few armor cars to advance unopposed by any White forces. It was only 40 miles from Tsaritsyn. The steppe was perfect for such an advance, flat as hell, providing no cover but fast transit for the cavalry. While White forces did occupy some of Tsaritsyn, there were none in the White rear areas. The closest forces were the 2nd Kuban Cavalry Corps (6000 men) but over a day away. The British B Flight of the 47th RAF led by Lt. Kinkead appeared overhead with Camel fighters and a few DH 9A bombers, swooping down on its prey, firing machines guns and dropping bombs on their strafing runs. This continued for hours. Could a few aircraft actually stop them? Dumenko’s three cavalry brigades and a few armor cars to advance unopposed by any White forces. It was only 40 miles from Tsaritsyn.
