AC lost:
His fighters came up to play today and got their teeth kicked in. I think he was expecting the mozzie attack on his PRI AF as he had set up a wall to catch me but my raid switched to Rennes PRI AF and when he came after me my Mustang I to IV went to town.

Damage to his troops:
As you can see after two days not much damage to be seen. All these units will be hit again today some at a lower alt, damage for and against will tell me if I should stay higher or come lower. Some of the ground units are lossing some equipment hope this lowers their strenght quickly.
Giving some of the bombers the day off seemed to rebuild them very quickly back to 32 planes some where as low as 20
You may notice at the moment I am only going after non static units as these are the units that will move towards normandy after the invasion and if I read the rules right this should slow them down.

Raid Map:
Havoc's going the long way again with mass fighter cover. I hope these raids make him move some of his HAA off the front line and back to these secondary airfields. The airfield I hit yesterday had 100+ planes and so does todays. I think the planes on these PRI AF are night fighters but I need them moved back further than here to get points as any plane inside the 500 line score him points.

Mission Report
Big day lots of planes shot down and missed targets. Two bomber streams hit there targets the others bombed through cloud or switched to secondary targets and then bombed through cloud.
German sent everything at one raid unlucky for him he chose the best protected. High fighter to bomber ration and top exp and moral.

*INVASION* I think well that is what it looks like to me
The germans have pulled back from the normandy beaches and it looks like I have captured Caen on the first day.
