The heaviest flak bursts were around the plane at left in which the bombardier was killed and a gunner seriously injured by the blasts. Despite being hit the Bombardier released his bombs and the plane returned to base. Pictures were made by T/Sgt Fay N Steele of Sommerville, TN a combat cameraman who was flying beside the formation in another plane. Steele is attached to the 4th Combat Camera Unit Army Air Forces."
