2/2/1944 Bombs in Berlin

This could be one of our most dangerous missions yet. Berlin is pretty heavily defended. Luckily this target is on the outskirts of the flak zones. We should face some pretty stiff defenses. We ride into germany and everything is still quiet. 4 109's fly up to greet us. We are poor aims today or so it seems, as only 2 of them fall from our guns. Everything gets quiet again, as everyone expects the germans to unleash their full force upon us once we reach berlin. However, that attack never comes. We reach berlin, and although the flak is very heavy at times, we fail to see another enemy aircraft. Tommyknockers is hit the hardest. A piece of flak rips through the nose killing their bombadier. Their left waist gunner is also struck down by a flak burst. We bomb our target very successfully and head for home. Our landing is a little rough as flak had severed the hydraulics on tommyknockers landing gear, but they were able to crank it down before landing.
