| 340th HQ Diary | Possible hits were scored on two targets today, the Ora diversion rail bridge and the Ora main bridge, on the Brenner line. 37% of our frags dropped today on the Budrio enemy defense area (Eighth Army front) landed in the target area, said the photo interpreter tonight. |
| 486th | No Mention in the Diary. |
