Thanks for all that information Bob....I really appreciate it. The stats on the number of bombers and fighters taking off on Missions in late 44 and early 45 is amazing to say the least.

Gordy: I know you didn't want an answer, but I feel compelled to comply. The Navy didn't get that fuel there, although they excorted and certainly assisted, it was the Merchant Marines. These unsung heroes fought tremendous odds up to mid-43, and even after, to get the juice to our boys. And for years they weren't eligible for VA benefits.
I met a janitor at a school in Rocton, Illinois, who was a Merchant Marine on a Liberty ship. You guessed it, they were topedoed and sunk and my friend went in the water. As he was swimming around, he found a life raft, then another. He lashed them together and stated picking up floating debris. He could see no other survivors, so he just kept picking up boxes of stuff. Turned out he was picking up beer and rations. He was in the North Atlantic for two weeks before being rescued by another convoy. When they took him aboard, thay asked him several questions about his identity, and then they threw him in the brig - he had no idea why. When he was again interrogated at Liverpool, then he found out his weight did not match what he told the people on the rescuing ship - he had gained 15 pounds!!!!! They thought he was a German spy!!!!

Thanks for the good info, Bob.
The one stat that has always amazed me was the fuel used. How in the
world did the Navies keep up with the demand, and how many ships and men
were lost getting that many millions of gallons to England? I am not
asking for an answer, just being rhetorical, but it is truly amazing
that all that fuel and ammo was brought over from N. America by boat,
fighting wolfpacks all the way.

Gordon: The 8th Air Force was made up of several sub groups - two of
which were VIII Bomber Command and VIII Fighter Command. (These
designations may have changed during the war.) VIII Fighter Command was
usually charged with protecting the bombers until the fighters were
allowed to break off escort duties and take the fight to the Luftwaffe
on the ground and in the air. I believe this occurred somewhere around
Big Week, 20 February 1944, Operation Aurgument.
The fighters had their own bases with names like Steeple Morden,
King's Cliff, Boxted, Leiston and Martlesham Heath. The fighters would
sometimes take off after the bombers had taken off. Remember, the
bombers flew at 150 to 160 mph and the fighters flew much faster, so
they would leave later to rednevouz with the bombers at some
predetermined point over the Continent.
Assembly is one of the most remarkable aspects of a bomber mission. I
have heard one in seven bombers lost in the ETO was lost either during
assembly or returning from a mission. It is hard today to comprehend
the logisitcs that went in to putting up 1,000+ bomber missions
considering most everything was made in America, flown or brought to the
UK on Liberty ships, and then distributed to each station. Here are
some stats given to me by Ed Kueppers from the 8th AFHS a few years ago:
Typical Eighth Air Force Mission - Mid 1944
Heavy Bombers: 1,400
Fighters: 800
Gasoline: 3.5 million gallons
Ammunition: 250,000
German A/C Destroyed: 25
U.S. Fighter Losses: 4
U.S. Bomber Losses: 5
Bombing Accuracy:
40% - 1,000 yards of MPI
75% - 2,000 yards of MPI
The 9th Tactical Air Force supported the troops on the ground before
and after D-Day by flying missions in support of our advancing boys.
They would knock out troop concentrations, tanks, artillery (any thing
that moved), transportation targets (train busters) and communications
targets, as well as strafe airfields. A good friend of mine, Tom
Liston,362nd Fighter Group, was at Wormingford originally assigned to
the 8th and then after D-Day the entire group was transfered to the 9th
AF, moved to the Contienent, and flew tactical support missions from
there.

Does anyone know why these were called "Nickels?" The canisters appear shiny silver like a Nickel; is this why?

Ladys and gentlemen, veterans,
i`ve just asked this question in April 2007 but unfortunately got no
response.
I live in Alf / Bullay. There`s a bridge over the river called "Mosel".
In Mission 292, B17G-Bombers of the 358th, 359th, 360th, and 427th
Bombardement Squadron tried to destroy it.
I dont know from wich Squadron the 61 escorting P-51 were. Got no
Information about it.
Here`s a Link to the Missionreport:
http://www.303rdbg.com/missionreports/292.pdf
I`m really trying to find some informations about it.. but got not much
and tried very hard to get some.
So if one of you have some informations, photos or could remind this
mission, or knows someone who was on this mission
it would be very very great if you could tell me something about it.
I would be very happy about anything i can get about it.
Please take the trouble to read the List of Flight-Personnel to notice
if you know someone of them.

I'm sure we didn't ship that delicacy brussels sprouts over from the States. But where did the English get such a great supply, I think we had more of the sprouts than bombs. Hal Susskind
