Americans Hammer

LONDON, Feb. 27.-American
Fortress and Liberator bombers
hammered the German naval
base at Brest on the French coast
today while RAF Ventures at
tackled Dunkerque in continual
ton of the greatest sustained air
assault Of the war on enemy in
stallations, from the North Sea
to the BAY Of Biscay.

The Paris and Calais radio sta
tons suddenly went off the air to-
night, indicating the Raj was
carrying the offensive through an
other night.
The daylight operations followed
closely a very heavy" attack by
Raj bombers last night on the bat

Cologne.
Squadron after squadron of Allied
planes shuttled across the Channel

Wilhelmshaven, which United
States bombers struck in daylight
yesterday, is another U-boat build
ing center and haven. Cologne, left
quaking under last nights ava
lanche of RAF bombs, also builds
subraine engines and parts.
With the Lorient and st. Nazaire
U-boat bases largely out of COM
mission from day and night attacks
by the Allied bomber fleets sta
toned in Britain, the Germans now
probably are using Brest-the third
big base in France-to capacity, one
British observer said.
Today's American attack was
seen by some as possible opening
round OF series of blows on Brest.
1t was the third USAAF raid on
Brest and the 116th attack there
since the start Of the war.
No Bombers or Men Lost.
Many bomb bursts and fires in the
target area were reported by the
Americans returning from the "un-
eventful' raid, which not only cost
them no bombers but no losses in
personnel either.
Much credit for this unscathed
return was given to the efficient
fighter cover, the bomber crewmen
reporting that only about five
Huns were sighted on the entire
trip.
Capt. Oscar D. ONeill Of Rio de
Janelro, Brazil, said 'it was one of
the most uneventful trips l ever
flew. 1t was the Raj Spits, guess.
because when we finished our bomb
run they were up above us just as
pretty as a picture and not Jerry

Sergt. Arnold L. Burston of Des

described the results like this:
There were SO many bombs bursting

that you couldn't count them. 1 saw

German Toll in Raid
On Kursk Is Raised
To 162 Planes
Full Story Of 10-Hour
Attack Is UnfoIded;
Ground Front Inactive
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, June 4.-The German
Air Force lost 162 planes out of 500
which attempted to raid Kursk We'd
nesday, it was announced today as
! the full story of the raid unfolded.
1t was announced previously that
123 German craft had been de-
stroyed over Kursk in one of the
biggest air battles of the war as the
aerial struggle all along the front
intensified and land action remained
desultory.
A correspondent for Red Star, the
army newspaper, said the Germans
| attempted an elaborate new plan of
approach in the attack on KurSk,
after their experience last May %
when they lost IS planes in raid on
the key Russian Ukrainian base.
This time they came in from many
directions and at different attitudes
to form a star, the dispatches said.
The attack began at dawn and lasted
10 hours.
Heavy Barrage Thrown Up.
But Kursk was on the alert and
the city's anti-aircraft guns threw
up a heavy barrage at the enemy
craft which slipped past Red fighter
planes at the distant approaches to
the city.
Each side fed reserve planes into
the battle and the German strategy
of smashing with small formations
was quickly stopped, with many
Junkers 8Ss and Dornier 215s shot
down. The Germans then sent in
one squadron of 100 planes at great
height, but only few of them sue
ceeded in unloading their bombs on
| the target area, the Russians said.
The Russians previously said they
| lost 80 planes in defense of the city.
The Soviet midnight communique
said the Red Army air force hit six
German tanks and more than so
trucks, sank a transport and tug
in the Gulf of Finland and blew up
ammunition and fuel dumps. An
enemy submarine and a tanker were
sunk in the Black Sea, it was said.
Soviet Planes Raid Kiev.
! A Moscow radio broadcast said
long-range Russian bombers raided
Kiev, in the Western Ukraine, We'd
nesday night and also attacked
Roslavl, railroad junction between
Smolensk and Bryansk, with loss
of two Russian planes.
The Soviet noon communique de-
clared % German planes were shot
down yesterday in the Kuban VAL
ley but that land action was minor.
There was no confirmation
| from the Russians of a German
claim that the Soviet troops had
launched a new drive near Tenn
ryuk. at the northern end OF the
Germans said the Red offensive had
not gained any lasting success.
The German communique said
Nazi air formations raided Red Army
/ supply centers in the Caucasus and
! on the Donets.
The Germans said repeated Soviet
attacks in the area of Velizh half
way between Smolensk and Velikie
Luki. were frustrated with 81 Rus
sian tanks destroyed and the Soviet
troops suffering heavy losses.

ADD HEROES!

RECENTLY, a cousin of my
wlfe's by marriage, went down
to his death in the midst OF sea
action. He was an Army chaplain
bound for the African theatre
OF war. l was discussing the
young man with another Army
chaplain. The latter told me
that although there had been
an excellent newsreel short
issued on chaplains, neverthe-
less 1t did not cover the history
or range OF duties and other de-
tails connected with this import
ant branch OF the Army and
Navy. He promised to collect
some material and let me use II
as l saw fit. Here, then. is what
l have learned about chaplains.
FORGE WASHINGTON
issued the first call for ministers
during the Revolutionary War.
They we're clergymen who con-
tracted for six months to a years
service on the same basis as sur
gcons of the day. No actual
commissions were issued-but
chaplains assigned TO Brigade
headquarters were ranked as
majors. Many Of the best-known
wearers of the cloth took their
turns with troops at the front or
at stations in hospitals or pris-
ons at the rear.
Cure ntly. the chaplains
duties fall into four main groups
religious. military, pastoral
and community He is, of course
first and foremost, the religious
leader and adviser. But also. he
is the cultural adviser OF his men
and must promote high morale.
Drawn from the major reli-
gious denomination in the
country they are now being
called to service at the rate OF
one chaplain for approximately
1900 soldiers.
