JG 3 and JG 300 on 23 August 1944
Hello Phil

The USAAF Chronology for the Fifteenth Air Force states that on 23 August 1944: "In Austria, 472 B-24s and B-17s supported by P-51s and P-38s bomb the S industrial area of Vienna, the Wiener-Neudorf aircraft engine factory, Vosendorf oil refinery, and Markersdorf Airfield, and attack targets at Ferrara, Italy, missing a river bridge but hitting a synthetic rubber factory."

Horrido!

Leo
