Sorry all for not posting in a while, but work has kept me exceptionally busy.

Our bombers have already come 300 strong over today, and supposed to do so all day (Hitler count your children.) We can hardly drive up to the line any more. They can hear us on the road.

Our planes went to raid enemy all day. Counted 250 planes going over to bomb enemy territory and the Jerries downed about 3 of our planes. One plane made it back in time to let his men out of the fortress and the other plane 10 parachutes came out, only pilot stayed in plane. Could see form our area the places where we were bombing and the jerry aircraft that were firing at them. Fighting of Cisterna was on when we landed here at Anzio/Nettuna Beach
