2 July 1944 booklet

[Peter Kassak]

Hi all,

I am happy to present you another from the series of books describing the air battles in the air of the central Europe in summer 1944.
This time it is about 2 July 1944 - Allies strategic aerial operations in the MTO and Axis defense response:
On 2 July 1944, the Strategic Air Force dispatched a total of 161 B-17s, 551 B-24s, 198 P-51s (45 P-51s from the Eight Air Force) and 140 P-38s against oil industry, airdromes and railroad infrastructure targets in the Budapest area in Hungary.
A heavy overcast encountered over Budapest Almásfüzitő Oil Refinery limited complete success of the day’s operations. The other targets were, however, successfully attacked. Detailed descriptions of combat of both sides, fates of lost airmen and results of attacks are offered in the text for the reader with the complete lists of Axis losses and victories, as well as these for 15th USAAF are published.
