OK Wikipedia isn't the font of all knowledge but this caught my eye.  lone German Heinkel He 111 from the Sonderkommando Blaich successfully attacked Free French Forces at Fort Lamy, Chad, but ran out of fuel on the return flight (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonderkommando_Blaich)

The article talks about trailing wire for radio comms.
