"I live in a world of death. (...) So far, I have done my duty in this war. I have never aborted a mission or failed to dive on a target no matter how intense the flak. I have lived for my dreams for the future. But like everything else around me, my dreams are dying, too. In spite of everything, I may live through this war and return to Baton Rouge. But I am not the same person you said goodbye to on May 3. No one can go through this and not change. We are all casualties." Quentin C. Aanenson, fighter pilot, captain, of the 391st Fighter Squadron, 366th Fighter Group (P-47s), 9th Air Force, U.S. Army Air Corps, in an unsent letter to his girlfriend.

On ground attack missions against German AAA? No. Not at all like high altitude dogfights.

High loss rate among the ground attack platforms. Most flights came back with bullet holes.

Yes, It would be a call of duty. Sorta like Charles Lindbergh scoring a japanese plane in a p38 after FDR forbade him to fly combat missions. You got to step up.
