White River Special
3/28/1945
Friday
#36 - Weather has had us grounded two days. The troops across the Rhine are moving so fast that they have taken several of our targets after we were briefed. Pulled a mission this afternoon to Naumburg (near Kassel) oil storage depot. PFF so couldn't see anything - milk run too. Germans are so busy running they don't have time to shoot at us. We had one engine cutting all the way - in addition to bad weather - so we all did a lot of sweating. Things like that are what crack men's nerves in combat.
