A BOMB PATTERN IS LIKE A FOOTBALL: BOMB PATTERN ANALYSIS

One thing I never see in any WW II literature is bomb pattern analysis in
tactical bombing. There is a lot to it that we had to live with, and I
thought
I would share it with those on this NG before it gets lost to history.

Page down until you hit the round patch with the dice on it. Just
under that for some B-26 cep info from 1952..



Great stuff Thanks for posting it. Those were Douglas Invaders. We flew

Martin
Marauders. Both were called B-26's finally.


I am reading that all the B-26s in Europe were destroyed in Germany
after the war and then here they are flying in Korea. Didn't make
sense to me.



Different planes. We flew the B-26 Marauder. After the war ended they took away
our Marauders and replaced them with A -26 Douglas Invaders.later renamed B-26
Invaders. Truth be known I enjoyed the Invaders better than the Marauders, You
might want to go to my website and read " In Remembrance of Willie The Wolf"
for the sad time that we lost our Marauders. I feel as though I had lost a
friend.
