Mission #48 to the Casarsa railroad bridge in North Italy. Same bridge we were supposed to hit before but missed because of undercast. Don't think we did a very good job today as most bombs seemed to land between the two bridges. Easy mission. No fighters, no flak. Dandy P-38 escort. Today i was promoted to First Lieutenant. Not bad, eh? Total time 6:15, on oxygen 3 hours. Sunbathed an hour. Alerted again for tomorrow to fly lead flight B - with Lt. Paul. Hope it's a good easy double. 6 letters today,4 from my gal, 2 from home. -20°
