"Rockets in Reich Defense

"U.S. Bomber Crews See 'Lots' of Them, Also Nazi Jet Planes

"LONDON, Dec. 4 (AP) -- The Nazis shot "baby V-2's" or anti-aircraft rockets at formations of American Flying Fortresses that attacked Mainz, one of the German rail cities pounded by the Allied air fleets today.

"'We got a lot more rockets than we we usually do,'" said Lieut. Robert Dams of Milwaukee, a bombardier.

"'The flak was light, but the Nazis mingled it with rockets which left heavy trails of bluish white smoke,'" related Lieut. David Barnett of Bromley, Ky., a navigator."
