”Strike at Cologne” Hosted by CRYPTIC
On May 30th of 1942 the first 1000 bomber plane raid named "Operation Millennium" inundated the Rhine River city of Cologne with devastation. Early the next morning Air Marshall A. T. Harris sent low level Mosquitoes to strike again.
The Mossies were specialized in this kind of mission, heavily armed with rockets, bombs and able to return home at high speed. The Luftwaffe could rarely catch a Mossie, consequently the De Havilland Mosquito's had the lowest loss rate of any aircraft in the Bomber Command.
This Snapshot duplicates just one of the many raids that could have taken place at Cologne except this time the Luftwaffe has a patrol of Me 109's in the area which could upset the usual low loss rate of the Mossie.
