Squadron War Diary
486th Not assigned to this mission
487th It wasn't until noon today when twelve 487th ships took off – one box to bomb Piazzola railroad bridge and the other to again hit Cittadella by-pass. Both boxes scored direct hits on their respective objectives. Anti-aircraft opposition was encountered although it was inaccurate and made no hits on the formation.
