27 October-2 November 1944

Overview

Cologne took a pounding this week, with 3 raids made by Wickenby squadrons as part of more than 2000 Bomber Command sorties to that city. The attacks caused major damage and killed more than 1200 people on the ground. There was also an operation by 10 Wickenby aircraft to attack German ground positions at Domburg on the island of Walcheren in Holland. No losses occurred this week.
