Re: Mission Reports 8th USAAF

Henk,

If you find the units which took part on that days mission, you can get in contact with their historians and get the mission reports. However, keep in mind that it is not easy to get all the post mission reports of all the pilots. You will most probably get the main mission report for each squadron.

This process may seem too much complicated but it wont really take more than an hour to find the historians. Try littlefriends.com.

Thats what I have found about that day: "163 of 179 P-51s fly a fighter sweep against rail and road targets in the Hannover-Magdeburg-Brunswick area claiming 2-0-0 aircraft in the air and 1-0-0 on the ground; 5 P-51s are lost (pilots MIA)."

Good luck,

batur
