This One Was Going to Be a 'Milk Run' (Offline Mission)

"This One Was Going to Be a 'Milk Run'" is an offline mission package created by Baumer.

Scenario

Gilze Rijen, Holland, August 19, 1943.

This was a mission flown by the 303rd Bomb Group during the summer of 1943. What started out as a simple "Milk Run" turned into a very bad mission for the 303rd. Due to haze and poor decisions by the lead bombardier the group attacked the German airfield at Gilze Rijen without any escort.
