Italy. 26 March 1945. During an attack on the shipbuilding yards at Monfalione in north-east Italy, one of the Consolidated B-24 Liberator bomber aircraft taking part in the attack was hit by a bomb falling from one of the aircraft above it.

The damaged aircraft dropped its bombs on the shipyards, the explosions of which are clearly shown, and despite the mishap was able to fly back to base and make a safe landing.
