Antetomaso, Mario Paul
7th Mission

Köln
Manheim, Germany
Just outside of Cologne.
2300 gals
7 hour [Mission], 2 ½ hours on oxygen.  24 – 250 lbs.  Think we hit the target, not sure though.  Target was a synthetic oil plant, was visible.  No flak to speak of.  Hope I can say the same thing for the rest of the missions.  Had 51 [P-51] fighter support.  Flew over (Shelt Esqurary [Estuary]) not spelled right, some fires there.  Two day pass starts tomorrow [off base pass].  Now only 28.
