July 5, 1944
Mission #47 to Toulon, France, submarine pens and harbor installations. Total time 8½ hours, 6 on oxygen. Long haul over water to France. Strong west wind blew smoke screen off target which was visible. No fighters. P-38 escort very comforting. Flak over target was quite heavy and accurate. We were hit 4 or 5 times. Many good hits on M.P.I. Took a whole roll of film. One letter from Adele today of June 19th. Chocolate ice cream for dessert tonite. Ship #74 - Old Cronie. Alerted again for tomorrow. Wrote home to Adele.
