July 15, 1944 Mission to Ferrara Road Bridge




Squadron War Diary
486th Again today Ferrara was hit twice. The morning flight came back with one serious casualty - Sgt. Keller the radio-gunner was hit in the chest and jaw. Several ships made belly landings and were perforated with flak. Patterns traveled in the target area, but most bombs straddled the bridge.
