RE: Swordfish over Palembang
Heavy air attack over Rangoon airfield. Estimated damage: 90%
I will blast as long as I can this airfield to avoy enemy air activities vs. allied burma airfields. Next missíon will be outgoing from Mandalay with Bleheim-B17 and buffalo-I like escorts. Spotted several tens of enemy aircraft in this damaged airfield.
