Hatten, Paul Van Buren
Our own ten man crew. We dropped 240 - 21# fragmentation bombs and 6 from the waist window on the German lines 10 miles N.E. of Caen. We had Spitfire figther cover and encountered no opposition. Flak was moderate but accurate in the target area and we got two holes in the wings and one in the nacelle of #1 engine.
