29 November 1944 Mission #205 Target: Altenbeken

The primary on this raid was another railroad viaduct in the continued effort to cut the major German lines of communications into the Rhine River area. The secondary target was the marshalling yard at Paderborn. A break in the weather had promised good visual bombing conditions. Between 0515-0645 hours, (19) crews were briefed and by 1000 hours the first ship was taking off. A force of (18) bombers went over the target releasing (127) 1000# bombs, having to resort to GH methods as the target weather was poor once again. Results were unobserved. Friendly fighter support was very good and no enemy aircraft were seen. Flak over target and enroute was negligible. All ships returned by 1540 hours.
