Giant Bomber Force
Blasts Foggio Airport

CAIRO, Egypt, July Is lP.-
Striking In three waves at Foggia
airdrome on the Adriatic side of the
! italian Peninsula, 10 Liberators of
the United States Air Force made
a flaming shambles of the main
and two satellite fields and left a
large number of aircraft burning on
the ground" an American COM
munique said today.
Nearly 100000 pounds of high
explosives, augmentation and in
cendiary bombs were dropped" the
communique said In telling of the
raid on Foggia airdrome.
"At the main airdrome the north
ern and central sections were COW
cred with hits. Other direct hits
were scored on hangers, barracks
and other buildings, a number of
which were left ablaze.
Clusters of incendiaries fell
among IS enemy aircraft on the
ground and most of these were seen
to burn"
Fifteen more planes were seen to
burn at the two satellite fields, the
announcement added, heavy black
smoke poured from oil fires and hits
we're observed on the railway tracks.
No fighter opposition was en-
countered and all the bombers re-
turned safely.
Two satellite landing fields in that
vicinity also were hit, the announce
nent said. At one three aircraft
were left burning aground and at
the other bombs fell among a con-
centration of II planes, some of
which were seen to catch fire.
The big bombers adopted a new
technique on this journey-that of
scattering incendiaries over the
countryside. These were dropped on
the outward trip, the communique
said. On the return trip forest fires
were observed at Metaponto, on the
Gulf Of Taranto.
During the preceding night Brit
ish-operated Liberators and Hall
faxes again returned to battered
Messina, on the northeast tip of
Sicily. dropping bombs near the
central station and oil tanks
Fires were reported still burning
there from the massive attacks by
heavy bombers from North African
and Middle East bases during the
previous day and night.
At Foggia, located on the east side
Of Italy opposite Naples, the COM
munique said, hits were scored
among the hangers, one of which
was left burning, and on workshops
and station buildings.
