Hatten, Paul Van Buren
LT Costigan flew again with us to make a ten man crew. We carried and dropped 12 - 500# incendiaries on the Junkers aircraft factory at magdeburg, Ger. We had moderate flak on the Holland coast and intense flak at the target. We had no battle damage. There was enemy fighters in the area but we were not attacked and had good fighter protection by P-38's and P-51's
