     WHILE FLYING TURMOIL LEADER ON MISSION V89-1, 22 MARCH 1945,

I ATTACKED THE AIRFIELD AT A9677, HANDORF, WITH FRAG BOMBS AND

BY STRAFING. ON MY FIRST BOMB RUN I DROPPED MY BOMB ON A JU-88

PARKED IN A REVETMENT CLOSE ENOUGH TO DESTROY IT. IN SUBSEQUENT

STRAFING PASSES, I STRAFED ONE JU-188 1/2 MILE EAST OF THE FIELD

AND OBSERVED MANY STRIKES ABOUT THE COCKPIT AND ENGINES.

     I SAW BOMBS OF LT CASEY AND HAYES SET A JU-88 ON FIRE HITT-

ing AMONG THREE E/A DESTROYING THEM. I SAW LT HAYES SET A JU-88

AFIRE BY STRAFING AND LT GRIM DESTROY ONE PLANE WITH A VERY NEAR

MISS AND LATER CAUSE A JET A/C TO EXPLODE BY STRAFING.

     I CLAIM ONE JU-88 DESTROYED AND ONE JU-188 DAMAGED.

1ST LIEUT, AIR CORPS.
