2. Narrative     (Spoofing Force)
   1.  Squadron and Group Assembly: The twenty-six aircraft comprising the Spoofing Force made good the assembly over the Kings Cliffe buncher at the briefed altitude of 7,000 feet.
   2.  Route Over England: The briefed route was closely followed over England. A delayed take-off due to fog had made it impossible to reach the briefed points at the previously planned times. The formation, however, flying in three-ship elements, was able to make good the briefed points after allowing for the delay in take-off.
   3.  Division Assembly Line: There was no Division Assembly. Departure from the coast was made from Clacton at an altitude of 10,000 feet. Close contact with Cycle Relay [A radio message relay station] was maintained. In accordance with the instructions of Cycle Relay, a turn to the left of the briefed course was made in mid-channel and bombs were dropped at 52°23'N - 02°55'E [Mid-Channel, 49 miles ESE of Lowestoft, England]. It would have been impossible to have continued the briefed route to the target and attacked as had previously been planned.
   4.  Flight to Target: After releasing its bombs in the channel, the formation took up a direct heading toward Felixstowe. After crossing the coast, the formation flew directly to base, only to find the weather conditions such that the ships could not land. The formation was diverted to Ridgewell and landed there at 1719.
3. Narrative     (Other Attacking Aircraft)
   1.  Targets Attacked: Sixteen aircraft of this group flew a High Squadron and two aircraft flew in the Lead Squadron (384th Group). The High Squadron attacked the airfield at Biblis, Germany while the two aircraft flying with the Lead Squadron followed it on the attack on Kaiserlautern. Three aircraft flew with the 401st Group and attacked Koblenz, Germany. Two aircraft flying with the 493rd Group attacked Frankfurt-Rhein-Main. Two aircraft flying with the 91st Group attacked Merzhausen, Germany. One aircraft flew with the 457th Group and attacked Koblenz. Merzhausen was attacked by one aircraft flying with the 303rd Group. Geissen was attacked by one aircraft flying with the 305th Group and by one flying with the 306th Group.
   2.  Diversion Bases: Due to the extremely bad weather in the area of the base, it was impossible to permit any of the aircraft to land at base. As a result, all aircraft were diverted, forty-seven (47) landing at Ridgewell, five (5) at Knottishall, and one (1) each at Downham Market, Debach, and Castle Camp.
   3.  Description of the Bombing Run: The target at Biblis was attacked by the 351st High Squadron flying on the Lead Squadron composed of aircraft of the 384th Group and two ships from the 351st Group. The High Squadron attacked the assigned primary, with the Squadron lead bombardier performing his own sighting operation. The briefed turn was made at the IP [Initial Point of Bomb Run]. Air speed on the bomb run was slowed to 140 in order to stay behind the lead squadron. The C-1 Pilot [Autopilot] was not used.
   4.  Comments: No aircraft were lost. No enemy aircraft were encountered. Reports from the aircraft attacking the various targets indicated the flak was generally moderate and accurate. Good visual bombing conditions prevailed over all of the targets bombed by this group. All bombing was done visually and what PFF aircraft were used, were used as navigational aids. Fighter support on this mission was generally good.

1. A/C [Aircraft] scheduled for operations on 24 December, 1944 which failed to take off.
   1. A/C L-7515, 510th Sq., pilot Lt. Haskins was scheduled as a special spare for mission of 19 December. This is a new crew and not fully operational and it is the policy of this group to have these new crews fly as special spares to gain experience. Due to inclement weather at base (A/D [Airdrome] was red) this aircraft was diverted to Colerne (RAF [Royal Air Force] Station). On 23 December, this group tried to get its aircraft back to base, but due to a ground fog setting in quickly, all aircraft were diverted and this crew landed at Keevil. The pilot called up today and stated that his crew was short a bombardier and Ball Turret Gunner, therefore, PAC VOCO 351st BOMB GROUP this crew and aircraft were scrubbed. The regular Bombardier and Ball Turret Gunner were hospitalized, therefore, did not accompany crew on flight of 19 December.
   2. A/C Z-7696, 509th Sq., pilot Lt. Hammond was scheduled for mission of 19 December, 1944 and due to inclement weather at base and per instructions of CBW [Combat Bomb Wing] aircraft of this group were diverted to Colerne. This is an RAF base and facilities are meager for supplying American crews and aircraft. The base did not have a supply of oxygen or bombs to prepare this aircraft for the mission of 24 December, 1944, therefore, this crew and aircraft were scrubbed.

1. A/C [Aircraft] scheduled for operations on 24 December, 1944 which failed to take off.
   1. Bombers of 1st ATF [Airborne Task Force] about 8 minutes late crossing in. 2nd and 3rd ATF also a little late. Flew courses well and in good formation. 78th and 339 GPs held on ground. 56 Gp take-off set back 35 mins 355 came in at 1530, E/A [Enemy Aircraft] nil. Other groups made R/V's [rendezvous] OK. Most of them early on Nuthouse instructions. 357B Gp in 1st 3 boxes of 1st ATF and 357A on last 6, as instructed before take off. This left coverage of front of 1st ATF pretty thin early in mission due to groups coming in behind bombers and not planning to catch up until R/V.
      Due to Hostile activity Nuthouse had to re-shuffle some of the groups to get coverage. 56 Group had to be put on close escort of 1st 6 boxes when 357B and 55 withdrew just after target. 20A pulled off of 2nd ATF to provide Target support to 3rd ATF with 361. Other A Groups put in 3rd target area after their own bomber were well out. 352 put on support of 1st AF.
      Hostile attacks were concentrated on Vinegrove 1-1 and 1-2 [351st Call Sign was Vinegrove 2-11.] and took place SW of Leige as bombers were coming in, before scheduled R/V's [rendezvous]. Y had reported hostiles airborne in Dusseldorf-Cologne-Bonn area and we had tracks on them. All were low [altitude] on TAC [Tactical] missions. We also had many tracks in the Malmedy-St. Vith area but they were supposedly friendly. Also down at 10,000. 2 tracks pickes [sic] up W of Bonn at 22.000 headed SW, one going south to Luxemburg and then north to bombers getting up to 30,000.
      357 and 55 had not made R/V yet when we warned of the stuff in Mallmedy area and asked 55 to get up with Vinegrove 1-1 and 1-2 until 357 got there. Both groups were just coming alongside first boxes of bombers when they sighted the E/A [Enemy Aircraft].
      Both Groups engaged. E/A making at least 2 passes at bombers. 353A pulled up front and 479A 353 vectored to interception of hostils [sic] from south and in front of bombers. 479 Group arrived too late to engage. North of Frankfurt 357A vecored [sic] to interception of hostiles, chasing them toward Kassel.
      All other hostiles were concentrated in Dusseldorf area. All on Tac [Tactical] Missions - several groups vectored in area but most of the E/A fled north before actual combat with our groups. 359 in combat. R/T good. Tracking Goodm [sic]

1. This report is based on incomplete reports and full information on the position of the camera ships is still lacking. Approximately sixteen of our A/C attacked the landing ground at Biblis, Germany (49°41'N - 08°30'E). There was no assigned MPI [Mean Point of Impact] and the purpose of the mission was to post-hole the field.
2. The bombs of the formation hit in woods and open fields approximately 900 feet from the NW corner of the field. The pattern covers an area 6168 feet by 3598 feet and little or no damage is done.

1. No leaflets were carried on today's mission.
2. Sixteen a/c [aircraft] of this group flew a high squadron and two a/c flew in the lead squadron of a composite Group which bombed Biblis a/f [airfield] in Germany. The high squadron dropped its entire load on the a/f in an effort to post-hole the field. Based on incomplete reports results of this bombing are poor with the main pattern falling to the northwest of the field. The two a/c flying with the lead squadron went on with that squadron to bomb the secondary at Kaiserslautern M/Y [RR Marshalling Yard]. There are no photographs of this bombing but visual observations indicate good results. Eight of our a/c were scheduled to fly with a group from Deenethorpe and three of these a/c plus one a/c of this Group which took off from Honington bombed the M/Y's at Koblenz with that Group. Results of this bombing were unobserved because of smoke in the area. There are no photographs. The other 5 a/c joined other groups when they were unable to form with Deenethorpe and bombed the following targets: three on Merzhausen a/f with apparently very good results as per visual observations; and two on Giessen a/f also with reported good results. There are no photographs of this bombing. Two of our a/c flew with the 493rd Bomb Group and bombed the Frankfurt-Rhein-Main A/F with good visual results reported.
3. No enemy a/c were encountered and no claims [of enemy a/c being shot down] are being submitted.
4. The first flak encountered by our crews who flew to Biblis was reported as scatttered along the line from 50°20'N 05°50'E [Fosse, Belgium] to 50°13'N 06°21E [Herscheid, Germany]; it was meager and accurate. There were various reports of moderate accurate flak in the area Spa-Odighe-Julich. Moderate accurate flak was encountered at Zell and Koblenz. There was meager fairly accurate flak at Giessen and at the target (Biblis). Intense accurate flak was encountered in the vicinity of Worms and North Mannheim. On the way out moderate accurate continuous following was encountered along a line beginning in the vicinity of Kaiserslautern and continuing approximately to 49°05'N 07°42'E. Our planes that bombed Koblenz encountered meager to moderate accurate flak at the target.
5. Good visual bombing conditions prevailed over all of the targets bombed by this group.
6. There are no observations of military importance at this time.
7. All bombing was done visually and what PFF a/c were used, were used as navigational aids. Since none of our a/c led formations which bombed targets no contact was made with the Scouting Force. Fighter support for this mission was generally good. None of our a/c was lost from the day's operations.
