The Kassel Mission, Sep. 27 - 1944

Discussion-related issue on this board:: High losses USAAF:
>Highest BG-losses for the 8th. were on this mission: Out of 39 B-24's, (445 BG) 35 were shot down, most within 7 minutes by Lw Sturmgruppe fighters.

After a research over more than 18 years only around last X-mas, US researchers presented a 88 min. very impressive documentary.
The PAL- and NTSC video shows intervieuws with those who were on the mission Lw- and USAAF, rare camera- and (gunsight-) shots, intervieuws with German civilians and survivers from both sides etc.

Real interested in obtaining this video may contact mbr. 8th.USAF-HS>
>codeswart@wanadoo.nl< for more info. I'll lead you to the address in the the US, makers of the movie.
