A B-26 Marauder of the 387th Bomb Group explodes in mid air over Dunkirk. A veteran has written in an enclosed letter to Freeman: 'The "A" picture enclosed was taken over Dunkirk and the aircraft is, I believe, piloted Col Jack Caldwell of Searey Ark. We were leading the second box and I remember Captain Kunde, our navigator with a real "nose" for flak, screaming at them to get away from Dunkirk. You will note that this is with 8-10 tenths cloud cover and other bursts are "on target", Thus our subsequent are of "Window" or "Chaff".'
