| Squadron | War Diary |
|---|---|
| 340th HQ Diary | Three missions today took us to the Piacenza area with barracks, a gas plant and one of the RR bridges as the targets. All three were satisfactorily bombed. A fourth mission took us to the North Magenta RR bridge and here again the boys did right well for themselves. |
| 486th | Not assigned to this mission. |
| 487th | Not assigned to this mission. |
| 488th | Not assigned to this mission. |
| 489th | Twice today we were out in force over Northern Italy, blasting targets of great importance to the enemy. Both times we accomplished our objective, leaving the Germans just a little less able to continue their stubborn resistance to our hard hitting ground forces. |
