Re: RAMROD 753 to MALINES on 19 April 1944
Dear All, thanks for the information above.
Meanwhile, I have been digging into the Malines city archives. These seem to confirm 03 consecutive waves of B-26 Marauders on that day; respectively 54, 54 and 72 in the third and final wave. This does not correspond with the numbers provided by Stephen above. However, strangely enough the city archive numbers of 54 and 72 equal a 3 or 4 number of 18 B-26 bomber formation refered to as 'boxes'. I have been trying to get into War Diaries of 9th Air Force, but still unsuccesfully. I guess the Mission Report information sounds more reliable but there is a too big difference between the city archive information and the Mission Reports. Any help on this?
Cheers,
Marc
