340th HQ Diary | The group flew its 700th mission today, against the Ora-San Michele rail diversion again. The crew participating managed only to cut a rail highway there. On the alternate target, the Bressana road and railroad bridge, possible hits were scored on the south span. Another mission, to Dogna town rail bridge, eight miles from the Austrian border, scored possible hits. |
486th | Not assigned to this mission. |
487th | Not assigned to this mission. |
488th | Six planes to San Michele rail diversion bridge, Italy. A big miss. |
489th | The mission to Northern Italy was a complete failure. We shall probably be sent back there tomorrow, the weather permitting. |
