8. 07/11/43 DUREN, GERMANY, SAW THE TARGET MILES BACK. THE LEADER DUMPED THE BOMBS IN A FOREST. THE BOMBS WERE INCENDIARY AND HIT IN A BEAUTIFUL PATTERN. THEY CAUSED A HUGE FIRE BUT LITTLE DAMAGE.
9. 16/11/43 RJUKAN, NORWAY, FLEW AT 12,000 FT WITH 5X1000 LB BOMBS. MILK RUN, NO FIGHERS NO FLAK. BOMBED POWER PLANT? NORWAY IS A COLD BARREN PLACE. FLEW LEAD OF SECOND ELEMENT LOW SQUADRON. TARGET: HYDROELECTRIC (HEAVY WATER)

NEITHER MAC OR I HAVE VERY GOOD INFORMATION ON THIS MISSION SO I WILL WING IT AS I RECALL THE CIRCUMSTANCES AT THE TIME. WE ABORTED SOMEWHERE OVER GERMANY AS OUR FUEL SUPPLY WAS DWINDLING RAPIDLY AS WE FLEW IN FORMATION. AS WE RETURNED TOWARD OUR BASE IN A FUEL SAVING MODE, OUR FUEL INCREASED AND BY THE TIME WE WERE ON THE GROUND WE HAD AN AMPLE SUPPLY! NEEDLES TO SAY THERE WERE SOME VERY POINTED QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED. OUR ONLY REPLY WAS TO STATE THEIR OUR OPINION IF WE WERE TO CONTINUE IN FORMATION WE WOULD HAVE RUN OUT OF FUEL LONG BEFORE RETURNING TO THE BASE. CONSEQUENTLY MAINTENANCE DID A COMPLETE CHECK OF THE FUEL SYSTEM. THEY FOUND A MEMBRANE OF SOME SORT SOMEWHERE IN THE SUPPLY SIDE OF EACH WINGS TOKYO TANK THAT RESTRICTED THE FLOW TO THE MAIN TANKS. I HAVE NO IDEA OF THE HISTORY OF THIS SHIP BUT APPARENTLY AS LONDA AS THE DEMANDS OF HIGH ALTITUDE FORMATION FLYING WERE NOT NECESSARY THE FUEL SYSTEM WAS NORMAL.
12. 30/11/43 SOLINGEN, GERMANY, DAMN GOOD PATHFINDER. FIGHTER COVER MAN ALIVE. HALF THE GROUPS ABORTED BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER. THERE WERE 6 FIGHTERS FOR EVERY B-17. P-47's P-38's AND I'LL BE DAMNED THE SPIT IX SHOWED ALSO. NINE SQUADRONS. WE FLEW WITH THE 390TH, THE 100TH NEVER DID FORM UP. FLEW AS THE ONLY SHIP IN THE #3 ELEMENT OF THE HIGH
SQUADRON, MORE OR LESS. FLUBBED AROUND MOST OF THE TIME. ACCURATE FLAK OVER HAPPY VALLEY. ONLY GOT ONE HOLE IN THE COWL OF #3 ENGINE. 24,000-28,000 FT WITH 4X500 LB BOMBS AND 20X100 INCENDIARIES. TARGET: CITY
13. 05/12/43 BORDEAUX-MERIGNAC, FRANCE, NO FLAK, FOUR FIGHTERS JUST ABOVE THE UNDERCAST. OH YES, THERE WAS SOME FLAK ABOUT 1,000 YARDS OFF TO THE LEFT AND LOW. BROUGHT THE BOMBS BACK
BECAUSE OF THE CLOUDS. FLEW LEAD OF THE LOW SQUADRON. 21,000 FT WITH 10X500 LB BOMBS AND FULL TOKYO TANKS. TARGET: AIRFIELD
14. 20/12/43 BREMEN, GERMANY, THIS TIME WE LEAD THE LOW SQUADRON. WE SURE HAD ONE HELL OF A TIME. GROUPS CONVERGED OVER THE TARGET. WE ENDED UP FLYING OFF OF THE 390TH WHEN LEAVING THE TARGET. FOUND THE 100TH OK AND FLEW HOME WITH THEM. FLAK WAS HEAVY BUT NOT ACCURATE. NO HOLES BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHY! PATHFINDER SHOW BUT THE TARGET WAS CLEAR SO WE BOMBED OFF THE GROUP LEADER. WE SHOULD HAVE HIT THE TARGET. IT WAS BIG ENOUGH! THE FIGHTER COVER WAS GOOD. THE 51's STAYED WITH US FROM THE TARGET TO THE COAST. NO ENEMY FIGHTERS THAT COULD BE POSITIVELY IDENTIFIED. NO DIRECT ATTACKS. WE FLEW AT 27,000 FEET LEFT THE COAST AT 19,000 FT. BOMB LOAD WAS

QUITE REVOLUTIONARY FOR THE 8TH AIR FORCE. WE WENT IN AT 12,000 FT AND SQUADRONS PEELED OFF AT 30 SEC INERVALS TO MAKE INDIVIDUAL RUNS ON THE TARGET.WE WERE HIGH SQUADRON AND THIRD OVER THE TARGET. BELIEVE WE HIT IT--NOT TOO GOOD BUT GOOD ENOUGH. FIGHER COVER WAS SOMETHING FOR THE BOOKS. LOW-LEVEL
AND HIGH COVER WITH SOME COVERING INLAND 30-40 MILES. NO E/A SEEN. SAW THE HOME BASE OF THE ABBEVILLE KIDS BUT NO SHIPS ON THE FIELD. SAW SOME FLAK BUT NONE WAS FIRED AT US. THIS WAS OFF THE COAST ON THE WAY OUT. CARRIED 16X300 DEMOS AND 150 GALS IN THE TOKYOS. FLEW #2 LEAD ELEMENT OF THE HIGH SQUADRON.TARGET: ST.JOSEPH au BOIS FRANCE, V WEAPONS

BILL DID A GOOD JOB. WE REALLY HIT THE TARGET. IT WAS CLEAR AS A BELL AND WE SAW PARIS FOR SURE. THE EIFFEL TOWER REALLY SHOWED UP. WE HAD GOOD FIGHTER COVER ALL THE WAY IN AND OUT. NO ENEMY A/C WERE SEEN. FLAK WAS PRETTY HEAVY BUT WE ONLY GOT ONE HOLE IN THE LEFT WING. IT WAS ACCURATE BUT JUST A LITTLE OFF TO THE LEFT.

18. 03/02/44 WILHELMSHAVEN, GERMANY, FIRST MISSION AS A PILOT AND WE HAD QUITE A TIME. BOMBED WILHELMSHAVEN THIS TIME 10X500. THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME QUESTION AS TO WHETHER WE HIT THE TARGET OR EMDEN. WE FLEW THIRD ELEMENT OF THE HIGH SQ. 100TH BG. MADE ONE OF THE MISERABLE
NITE TAKE OFFS. WE HAD ONE HELL OF A HEAD WIND COMING OUT AND IT TOOK US OFF COURSE. WE LOST # 1 ENGINE--SUPERCHARGER QUIT JUST BOOM! THE PROP FEATHERING SYSTEM WOULDN'T WORK. WE DROPPED OUT OF FORMATION OVER THE NORTH SEA SUPPOSEDLY! WE FLEW ALONG THE EDGE OF A STORM RATHER THAN FLY THROUGH IT WE WERE REPORTED AS HOT NEWS WHEN WE TRUNED BACK TOWARDS GERMANY TO MISS FLAK. LET DOWN THRU A HOLE SO WE WOULD HAVE OUR ENGINE AGAIN AND NOT HAVE TO FLY THRU ICE. REACHED 6,000 FT AND LO AND BEHOLD WE WERE DIRECTLY OVER THE ZYDER ZEE. WOW! I'LL TELL YOU FOR SURE WE FAIRLY WELL GOT OUT OF THERE IN A HURRY. THAT WAS REALLY PRETTY BUT I GUESS WE DIDN'T APPRECIATE IT THO. OUR LUCKY DAY. CRYAN WAS CP AND BECKER WAS THE NAVIGATOR.

WE PUT OUR FIRST MISSION ON "537". IT SURE IS A GOOD SHIP BUT ONCE THE TAIL GETS DOWN AND THE AIRSPEED HITS 145 ALL HELL AND HIGH WATER CAN'T PICK IT BACK UP. THESE ELECTRONIC SUPERCHARGERS SURE ARE SWELL. WE LED 3RD ELEMENT OF HI SQ BUT WE FINALLY FILLED IN RIGHT WING SECOND ELEMENT. SURE HAD A TIME ALTOGETHER, ONE OF THOSE 145 DEALS THINK WE HIT THE TARGET PRETTY FAIR. IT WAS THE SECONDARY TARGET WE HIT AS THE PRIMARY WAS COMPLETELY COVERED BY CLOUDS.

HAD OUR OLD HOLE AGAIN, THIRD ELEMENT LEAD IN THE HI SQ WITH THE 100TH "A". WE HAD 10X500 AND FULL TOKYOS. THE FIGHTERS REALLY CAME IN TODAY. WE SAW ABOUT 40 FW 190's BUT ONLY FIVE OF THEM MADE ONE PASS IN TRAIL AND LEFT. THIS ATTACK CAME JUST AT LAND FALL. JUST BEFORE BOMBS AWAY WE WERE ATTACKED BY 7 ME 110's. THEY REALLY CAME IN CLOSE. I'M DAMNED IF THEY COULD HIT US OR WE COULD HIT THEM. WE LOST TWO CREWS TODAY. HARRIS AND SMITH. SMITH WAS REPORTED DOWN IN SWEDEN.
