Fliers Tell of Fights
“We had perfect weather. I don’t see how we could miss. There was lots of flak at our level, but most of it was behind us. We saw some fighters, but they were out of range.”
Flak behind you might have been an effect of the fast upper airstream that also made bombing with the nordeen sight very difficult.
