Mission Summaries
The 445th Bomb Group (H) started flying mission in mid-December, 1943. Over the course of seventeen (17) months they flew a grand total of 280 combat missions. Before the unit started operational flights, they did participate in several Diversion Missions which were designed to fool the Germans into thinking they were a strike package when their intent was to divert enemy forces away from the actual targets.
