Re: 94th BG Target on 29 Apr 44?
In the 94BG history Lingering Contrails of the Big Square A, author Harry Slater describes the 94th's participation in the raid on Berlin on 29 April 1944, noting that they were led by Major Birdsall with the specific target being Friedrichstrasse Railroad Station in Berlin. Due to smoke, the 94th's bombs probably landed southeast of the intended target. Two 94th aircraft were lost to flak on that mission, 42-102520 from the 332 BS and 42-31498 "Passionate Witch" from the 331 BS. In Mighty Eighth War Diary, Freeman also lists the 94th among the groups participating in the mission to Berlin/Magdeburg/Brandenburg on 29 April 1944
