Webmasters note: This background article, despite its deterioration, gives  a very good explanation of the role and mission of a typical (if there ever was one) Typhoon pilot and more importantly defines the constraints they had to work under to assure the eventual destruction of the Nazi war machine. And it goes a long way to explain the modest claims recorded on daily mission reports.
