| Dear,<br/> <br/> My father was a Belgian and worked in Sachsenhausen/Oranienburg during WW2.<br/> He was severely injured during an attack on April 10, 1945 and experienced near-dead situations, he told men once.<br/> I recently learned that the Bombing Group 401 attacked the area where he stayed and worked.<br/> I never heard him complaining about that attack, he probably knew it was a friendly attack.<br/> I found a number of documents about this attack and would like to understand some more.<br/> 1.- Is there more information available of this attack, like photos or videos taken during this attack?<br/> 2.- Can some-one give me some more information of the structure of the airforce and the relationship of bombing group, wing, squadron and 8th or 9th air forces?<br/> <br/> Best regards, Kris <br/><br/><br/>

| Kris,<br/> <br/> Definitely sorry to hear this, friendly fire is something that should always be avoided in war. If only it were that simple.<br/> <br/> If you haven't already, I would start by looking here: [++m246|http://www.401bg.org/Main/History/Missi ... Number=246] . There are other more knowledgeable members of this group, hopefully they will comment soon. <br/><br/><a href='/p2769.ashx'><img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/wmSig401st150p.gif' /></a><br/> <br/>
