Mission No 64

MISSION NO. 64
BERNAY-ST. MARTIN AIRFIELD, FRANCE

11 JUNE, 1944

On the sixth day of the invasion, the Eighth Air Force continued attacks against airfield and communications points to the rear of the German lines. The 457th comprised the high box of the 94th Combat Wing and dispatched eighteen craft to the airfield at Bernay-St. Martin, thirty miles east of Le Havre. It was a small dirt field, a satellite to a larger nearby field. Captain Wilbur D. Snow served as Air Commander with Lt. Alfred W. Fischer as pilot.

The target area had complete undercast which made bombing results unobserved. Gee Box fixes indicated the bombs were dropped away from the briefed target. The bomb mn was made at 15,000 feet. There was no enemy aircraft opposition and no flak was encountered.
