...we flew our third mission which was a long one, nine hours to Leipheim, Germany and another Focke-Wolk assembly plant. Looking down we could see Paris, Dieppe, Dunkirk and lots of interesting places. We encountered no fighters and flack was light and inaccurate. It was a rather tiresome trip but I like missions like that. The strike photos showed excellent results and the group was congratulated by General Doolittle.
