B-26s Bombing D-Day Beaches
A week ago, there was a discussion of the altitudes from which B-26s
bombed the beaches on D-Day. I talked today with a friend who flew one of those B-26s at Utah Beach. He said they bombed from 1,100 feet. He didn't know what altitudes were used at Omaha. He added that he saw landing craft emerging from the smokescreen as they made their run, and that the A-20 laying the smoke went into the drink, probaby hit by AAA. vince norris |
