Re: B-17 special mission
Rolland. If this was a testing/experimental flight I think it's more likely to be the improved Gee-H (which could be jammed) ie. "Micro-H" which was online with 3rdBD B-17s from Dec. 1944; it was being developed by 482BG going into Jan. 1945. The ground personnel actually came from this Group, the transmitting stations being Verdun (Charny Y-28) and Namur; it may be significant that another was established at Nijmegen in January.
Maybe Kent could focus on the 482nd ? a most interesting Group.
