RAID ON THE KREMLIN

On the 22nd of July 1944, the first air
attack on Moscow occurred when Ju88s from
KG 3 and KG 54 attacked along with He111s
from KG 53 and 55.  They were led by
pathfinders from KG 28.  When the 127
bombers arrived over Moscow, they were
dazzled by over 300 searchlights and
encountered "a volcano" of flak.  II/KG
55, whose mission was to hit the Kremlin
itself, was sure that it did, but the
light incendiary bombs did little damage.

MISSION

Your He111 is the last in your unit to
drop its bombs on Moscow - destroy as
many buildings as possible.  You are
likely to encounter some enemy aircraft
after the target.  You are just outside
Moscow, so get your gunners on autofire
and get to the bombadier as soon as
possible.

NOTES

This is a night mission.
