Re: Diverted American aircraft February 15th 1945
Hello Steve ,
From "Mighty Eighth War Diary"
Looks like there was very bad weather on that day.
1st Air Division targets were -
Dresden - 224 a/c - 210 effective
Lingen - 1 a/c effective
Ems-Weser-Canal - 1 a/c effective.
4 a/c CatE
8 Damaged
7 Kia
8 Wia.
43-38694 - 351
511 - DS-C - Bigas Bird
510 - TU-D
Was later returned to King man in Dec 45.
So expect the C-47's were also effected by the weather.
