It says:<br />5/27/44<br />PAU<br />FORM I TIME: 9:50 BOMBS 12-500 LB G.P.<br />REMARKS: Pau, located near Spanish border , advanced training field, was covered with direct hits. Blew it all to pieces. Lost our lead crew with Sammy Borenstein, squadron navigator. Bailed out [illegible.] His own fault as he went over known flack area. Good visibility nearly all the way. Several ships fired inaccurate flak at us. Picked up several flak holes.Mortimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10258255437279886326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10689698.post-57708181546874023032016-07-26T06:29:25.726-07:002016-07-26T06:29:25.726-07:00Mr Borenstein,
