How'd it happen?
-Sighting mistake. It was my fault, Casey. Just as we started the bomb run,
the second group turned inside at the IP. We had to swing wide
to get out of their way. Goldberg had only a minute
for identification. There sat a town that looked more like
Schweinhafen than Schweinhafen does. Checkpoints were identical. We were both fooled
by that dummy camouflage... ...and threw our whole load
down the chimney. The others salvoed into our smoke
