  1. ~S I would like to invite a good friend and wingman to the Dogz !! HIs name is Frigates, he's a huge fan of sheep. Flys the p-38 like a Dogz and has been my wing man in IL2 for a long time. KNown him for 40 years and the guys a good fit. I have him all dialed in with the MODs and the TS. So I hope its all good to have him tag along. Let me know if we are good with that?

  5. Mission Date 25/11/44 402nd FS - Attack Transportation Targets, Emmerich 485th FS - Fighter Sweep, Emmerich-Mönchengladbach sector 410th BG - Attack Rail Targets, Krefeld Debrief: 370th FG 402nd: Again in the face of spirited AAA resistance the 402nd remained un-phased and wrought terrible destruction upon the enemy ground forces in the target area. Finding themselves with ammo and ordnance to spare they pushed SE along the front and discovered further opportunities to beat-up on the Krauts in the vicinity of Weeze, breaking off through a combination of low ammo and the instance of Lt. Finknottle receiving damage to his airframe; he elected to make an emergency landing at Ophoven, making it safely but not without incident - his right engine quit on him as he approached the threshold! Nonetheless he seems re markedly unperturbed, though we suspect a few shots of whiskey may have had their medicinal effect! By the time they broke for home the 402nd claimed 37 ground targets destroyed. Another excellent performance chaps, well done! Particular mention goes to 2nd Lt. Patrick Last who claimed 14 targets alone - a most impressive haul we're sure you'll agree. Great work that man! 470th: Major Payne-less' debrief covers the salient points - unfortunate showing gents; looks like we've been too effective hammering the Luftwaffe of late. Regards the flak, there's not much you can do against that 88 stuff; it often seems to creep up as the gunners gradually correct their fire and the only possible recourse is to regularly adjust course and alt if you're in a known 88 area, but they move the guns around so much it's almost impossible to be sure of where you'll encounter it. The major towns and airfields will certainly have some but we're regularly seeing stuff near the front also. Guess we've just got to keep a wary eye out for the bursts. 410th BG The 410th flattened their assigned target, primarily due to the excellent low level bombing skills of 2nd Lt. Dave Haggis who single-handedly took out an entire train consisting of a locomotive and 9 wagons! Great job that man!
