Shortly after the departure of the "Aussies" this morning, our fourth Baltimore aircraft arrived. This was A.G. 757 and was brought on strength of the squadron on the same basis as those which arrived three days previously. Arrangements were made to start conversion training to Baltimores for our pilots.
Our camp is established once more and work is in full swing again. Major JANDRELL led a formation of 18 Baltimores to bomb M.T., infantry and tanks at Z 1560 (Ref. Map Tunisia 1:500,000 Sfax). Bombs fell amongst well dispersed M.T. and numerous dug-in positions. One fire was seen on leaving the target. A.A. very slight and inaccurate.
Oprep. No. 254, Sortie Report and Crew List.
