We were proceeding west through
our assigned area on deck. Lt. Korinek had lost an engine, and I had taken
over the flight after we became separated from Capt. Garlock. As we approached
a city, which I believed to be Burg, I saw an airdrome to the south-east
of the city. I called to Lt. Walters to stay with Lt. Korinek as escort
while I went down to strafe the airfield and that I would rejoin them
west of the airfield. I dove on the field and opened fire on the first
of two hangars, continuing on firing at the second hangar and the control
tower, securing hits on all three buildings. As I passed the control tower
I saw a Ju 88 parked at the extreme western edge of the field with a crew
of five or six men working on the A/C. I opened fire from about 300 yards
and fired until I passed over the parked A/C. The crew were either hit
or fell to the ground, and I saw hits all over the E/A. I looked back
after pulling up, and the E/A was burning heavily. I saw no aircraft parked
on the field although there may have been some at the upper edge and to
the south. I rejoined the flight and continued on. I claim one Ju 88 destroyed
on the ground.
