Summary:
|
The 38 aircraft of the 401st made up the 5th, 6th and 7th boxes of the 94th Combat Wing on this pre-invasion mission to attack railroad bridges near Paris known to be choke points for the transportation of materiel to the French coast. The Group made a visual attack, and results were judged to be excellent. No fighters were encountered and flak was meager and inaccurate, although a few aircraft returned with holes.
