Weather Causes Confusion: The 38th Bombardment Group (H) led the 41st B Combat Bombardment Wing, and, in addition, provided the Low Group of that wing, on today's mission. Heavy but partially broken clouds over Berlin led to the Lead Group bombing a target of opportunity by visual aiming, while the Low Group bombed the primary target using PFF of another group. |
