Belle interception de la part des pilotes du 341sqn, qui, avec les P38s de l'escorte, ont permis aux A20b du Lorraine d'effectuer leur bombardement sur Cherbourg sans être inquiétés.
Les sergents Joe Actenot et Jean Jack, récompensés par une DFC bien méritée sont attendus au mess pour une tournée générale !
Les A20B du Lorraine en route vers Cherbourg à 12500 pieds... la côte française commence à être visible au loin:

Après 15 missions, je propose un arrêt de cette campagne.
On pourra, si la demande s'en fait sentir, la poursuivre dans quelques semaines, quand le 341sqn aura rejoint le territoire français, après le débarquement ?
