“INDIA: The Japanese fly their last bombing raid against Calcutta.”
Unbelievable that they are still able to and inclined to bomb Calcutta!
“During the night of 24/25 December, a Japanese bomber destroys a 100,000 U.S. gallon (83,267 Imperial gallons or 379 kiloliters) aviation storage tank at Hill Field on Mindoro Island. As a result, flight operations are restricted from this base for several weeks.”
On second thought after reading the above, and considering that B-29’s recently bombed bases on Java and Sumatra from Calcutta, I guess the Japanese trying to knock out the B-29 base makes a lot of sense of you can hit an aviation fuel tank!
