486th | No Mention |
487th | Operations slowed down today and there was only one mission taking off at 1003 hours to bomb Steinach South Railroad bridge in Austria. One box of the twelve ship formation bombed the primary and all bombs fell in the target area around the bridge and tunnel mouth. The other box bombed the alternate which was Volargne Railroad Fill and the pattern covered the tracks north of the target. Inaccurate anti-aircraft fire was observed, but it did not reach the formation. |
