Clouds Hide Primary - Again!: The 384th Bombardment Group (H) flew as the low group of the 40th Combat Bombardment Wing, and as the high squadron of the high composite group of the 41st CBW on today's mission. The primary target was completely hidden by cloud cover, so the secondary was attacked by both Wings using PFF.
