The selection of
targets in March, 1945 gets tougher as the majority of the German war machine
has been destroyed. Rail yards, oil refineries, and the occasional fighter
air field are hit. A low level troop support mission was flown towards the
end of the month to support Operation VARSITY, the last airborne drop of World
War 2.
