RUHR VALLEY INVADERS

Description

Arriving at high speed over a busy German rail yard in the heart of the Ruhr Valley, barely skimming the nearby factory chimney stacks on the way into the target, the A-26 crews of the 386th Bomb Group deliver a devastating blow, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. With bombs away, the Invader crews strafe the area with their ten forward-firing machine guns, the roar of their engines heightening the confusion on the ground.
