Summary:
|
This was another effort to support the allied ground forces in the early days of the invasion by attacking a strategic railroad line at Falaise, in the rear of the German positions. The 401st furnished the High Box of the 94th Combat Wing. Because of heavy clouds, bombing was conducted by PFF (radar), and it was necessary to make two runs over the target because of malfunctioning equipment. No enemy aircraft were seen, and only meager flak bursts were noted in the area.
