| 487th | Rain again last nite sort of dimmed the possibility of a mission today although it had cleared sufficiently by 17:35 hours for twelve of our aircraft to take off. Their target was gun positions on the coast of France at pinpoint U-522180. Most bombs landed in a compact pattern within the target area scoring probable hits in or near gun positions. Enemy opposition was nil although small arms fire was observed on strafing fighters from a nearby radar station. |
