NATURAL FINISH AND GREEN B-17Gs of 398THBG [H] OVER COLOGNE

NOT BEEN POSTING MUCH FOR A WHILE BUT HAVE BEEN PRETTY BUSY.

FINISHED A B-24 TOUR OF 30 MISSIONS WITH A NUCLEUS OF ABOUT 7 CREWMEN. AND NOW I'M ON A 398TH BG[H] TOUR AND IT HAS BEEN ROUGH. LOTS OF A/C AND CREW HAVE BEEN LOST - MANY AS POWS.

IT IS SEPTEMBER NOW SO THE CORNER IS TURNED AND ESCORTS EASILY DEAL WITH THE BANDITS MOST OF THE TIME.
