Budapest 4/5.09.1942
 

Friends
In the night 4/5.09.1942 was bombing Budapest.

Attacked this Rusian divisions: 3, 17, 24, 36, 45 AD DD.

I know that perhaps took off 80 bombers. Over target was only 23 planes.
Bad weather prevented flight and many of crew attacked alternative targets.

Maybe anybody has source documents thsi units and can help me which places also was bombing outside Budapest ? How many planes sending to the targets every one divisions ?

Does anubody has any details from this attack ?

the oblique font is a spare target (for 17 AD DD did not find a separation). Budapest is not the only main target.
