Summary:
|
The 401st made up the 94th Combat Wing "B" Group on this mission, the target being a railroad bridge at Regensburg. This was part of a major strike by the 1st and 2nd Air Divisions on rail and communications centers throughout Germany.
The target was bombed visually by all three squadrons with excellent results. 90 per cent of the Group's bombs fell within 1,000 feet of the aiming point.
No enemy aircraft were seen, and the flak encountered at Nuremberg and over the target was meager. However, it was fairly accurate, and two 401st aircraft sustained minor battle damage.
