Re: Missions to Novi Sad Yugoslavia 1/7 Sept 44
According to the database I have built of all B-17/B-24 missions in the MTO (for A History of the Mediterranean Air War), 454th, 455th and 456th BGs attacked Novi Sad on Sept 6, 1944. I do not show any heavy bomber missions on Sept 7.

Missions were flown to Novi Sad on Aug 7 (98th BG), Aug 30 (99th*, 301st, 463rd, 465th), Sept 1 (455th), Sept 5 (459th), Sept 6 (454th, 455th, 456th), Sept 18 (463rd*), and Sept 21 (450th*). All of these missions attacked the marshalling yard(s), except those marked with an *, which attacked railroad bridge(s). At this point I do not know what the 98th BG's target was on Aug 7.

Enjoy!

Frank.
