The arrival of the new long-range P51 Mustang escort fighter has made deep penetration raids into Germany a survivable prospect for our heavy bombers. You will conduct an escort, or "ramrod", mission, protecting a bomber group all the way to Berlin and back. This will be the first time American bombers have reached Berlin.
This is a massive raid. Ten squadron airplanes are available for this mission. You will escort twelve B-17G Flying Fortress heavy bombers.
