Enemy fighters on Weiner Neustadt raid

Enemy fighters on the Weiner Neustadt raid placed a lucky rocket shot thru the tail of "old number 34" -- At least it was a lucky crew that brought themselves back safely. The ball gunner got revenge at that by shooting down this same rocket ship. Pictured are the crew members Left to Right front row; Sgt. Robert Smith, 2405 S. Albany Ave., Chicago, Ill. T/Sgt.
