COMMENTS:

For the group a "Milk Run"--- for us not so good, no flak or fighters but 20 minutes before the target we lost three supercharges and a loss of power at altitude. Had to drop back beneath formation. Mad we had been atacked by fighters--- hard luck!

Total "Raider" time up to today - 260:00 hours. Too damned many new faces.
