The
New Year's Day strafe wrote off two more (one on the ground, one in
the air) and damaged another. Nevertheless five hours after the
Luftwaffe storm had passed the Squadron put up its four serviceable
aircraft on an armed recce, and operations continued (weather
permitting) until the Squadron was again at full strength. Armed
recces over the American front were interspersed with strafing attacks
in the Squadron's usual tactical area in the north around Munster.
