Re: July 4, 1942 First US Raid.
hello Rob,
Yes 29th June 1942 operation this is also noted in the Mighty Eighth book.
I left out reference to it so as not to confuse anyone with details of a/c used on the 4th July op.
But as to the first US "aerial blow to Europe" this notion was no doubt pushed forward at the time so as to make little of the first US mission to Ploesti on the 11th June 1942.
