| 340th HQ Diary | An estimated 4000 German casualties were caused by the air support blitz yesterday, 15th army group (Allied) announced yesterday. This morning our group pounded two troop areas at Lavezzola and in the afternoon rained a heavy frag load down on Massa Lombardia in two missions, probably doing extensive damage and casualties to troops and equipment there. |
| 486th | More close support work today - Looks as if something big in the nature of a push is about to happen. |
| 487th | Not assigned to this mission. |

| 489th | Again in close support of British Eighth Army troops, this Group put forth a maximum effort with two missions today. Both were aimed at troop concentrations at the front line. The results are not yet available at the time of this writing. |
