Our home based bombers made a very heavy attack on Nuremberg. The raid appears to have been well concentrated. Mosquitoes were over the Ruhr, France and the Low Countries. 33 bombers are missing. 14 days ago Nuremberg was the target for 1500 tons of bombs. In Italy yesterday railway yards 16 miles N.N.E. of Naples were attacked as well as other targets. 20 enemy planes were shot down. During the day road and rail communications in S. Italy were attacked as well as gun positions at Reggio. In all 9 planes are missing. In the Sicilian campaign we lost two submarines. The Russians did not capture Kruuskaja [?] but Kramatorsk.
