After having missions briefed for Liepheim and Bernoise airfield north of Paris on the 27th and 28th and then scrubbed for weather, the oil refineries at Bremen were assigned to the Group for the 29th. At 0245 and 0400 hours, (46) crews were given general briefing and at 0600, all began their take-offs. The mission was PFF led, (45) going over the target to bomb through 10/10th undercast, releasing (954) 250 and 500# GPs. Results were not observed. Though no fighter opposition was encountered, flak was intense and accurate enough to cause damage to (28) aircraft. Fortunately no casualties were suffered and all Liberators recovered safely at base around 1245 hours.
