156 Squadron Mission Details
Target: Munich Mission Date: 7/01/1945 Mission Comments: The Squadron went further afield tonight when 15 aircraft attacked MUNICH. The attack was carried out in conditons of 10/10ths cloud, but the glow of a previous raid could be seen 50 miles away. Bombing appeared to start early and was good in general, but rather spread at first. Appeared to be a good raid.
