1/30/1944 Quiet Ride

This mission proved to be one of our easier missions. The majority of our flight was over the ocean. Therefore we met little resistance from the luftwaffe until we approached land. Only one group of 109's came up to welcome us. The battle drug on, and were only able to down 3 of them. The other plane ran out of ammo, and had to return to base. We run through heavy flak on the approach towards the target, but luckily none of us is too damamged as we drop our bombs right on the mark. Tearing up the target. we turn around and head for home, thankful to be alive for another mission.
