kraut1 Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Hi All, For the USAAF I have already found a time table: https://aircrewremembered.com/USAAFCombatOperations/ Is a similar document existing for the RAF Bomber Command, that includes all or many daylight light / medium bomber missions? My focus is on western Europe, Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. In Germany especially between September 1944 to end of war.

For me for my EMG Germany 1943-1945 Mod. it would be helpful to have something like a list or a brief summary with date of the mission, unit, plane type and target. I want to have an rough overview, especially about RAF daylight B25/A20 missions from September to winter 1944. E.g. for USAAF tactical operations I learned that in autumn 1944 there were many B-26 / A-20 missions against railway bridges, marshalling yards in western Germany, I suppose to cut the german supply to the Hurtgen Wald.

1CGS LukeFF Posted March 5 1CGS Posted March 5 Best thing to do is to download the squadron RAF records from the British archives and then tabulate their missions in a spreadsheet. I've done that for all the playable RAF squadrons in career mode, so that excludes the B-25 and A-20 units. 1 1
jollyjack Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Seems necessary for the game's career thing, but probably quite some work. Thanks anyway. Barely on the Rheinland (Valkenburg) map, but here some a-20 RAF history: https://www.americanairmuseum.com/archive/mission/raf-bomber-command 1
