    303rd BG (H) Combat Mission No. 74 4 October 1943 Target: Aircraft Components Mfg. & Assembly Plant, Frankfurt, Germany Crews Dispatched: 21 Crews Lost: 1Lt V.J. Loughnan crew, 2 minor casualties Length of Mission: 6 hours, 15 minutes Bomb Load: 12 x 1,000 lb G.P. plus M47A1 Incendiary bombs Bombing Altitude: 23,500 ft Ammo Fired: 51,360 rounds Enemy Aircraft Claims: 6 Destroyed, 3 Probables rankfurt, Germany was today’s target. Six Group B-17s aborted the mission: F #42-29894 Baltimore Bounce 359BS (Clifford) - The 427BS crew transferred to a spare aircraft and the pilot didn't have an oxygen mask. #42-5854 Alley Oop 360BS (Cogswell) and #42-5177 Fast Worker MK II 359BS (Hanselman) - The pilots thought they were short on gas. #42-5788 A.O.G. Not in Stock 360BS (Baker) - The No. 3 engine had a runaway prop. #41-24629 (No Name) 358BS (Hartigan) - The interphone was out and the supercharger was lagging. #42-5257 Miss Bea Haven 359BS (Brown) - The waist gunner became ill. The lead bombardier, 1Lt. Byron K. Butt, overshot the IP when industrial haze and smoke made it difficult to observe. After several right turns they were back on the bomb run course. Bombs were dropped using the bombsight after a 25-second bomb run. The fifteen remaining Group aircraft dropped 1,000-lb. bombs plus M47A1 incendiary bombs from 23,500 feet. Four aircraft also carried leaflets. The formation was escorted part of the way into enemy territory by P-47 fighters. However, for the roughest part of the trip–into Germany proper–the bombers flew unescorted.

  • Records and History
    Records and History Old Dominion University Baseball 2009 Old Dominion University Baseball 2009 27 BUD METHENY n Jan 2, 2003 Old Dominion University and the athletic program lost a legend with the passing of Bud MethenyO and his wife Fran on the same day. Bud spent 32 years at the University from 1948 to 1980 as an instructor, basketball coach, athletic director and coach of the baseball program. Baseball was his passion, and where he made his mark. As a member of the New York Yankees from 1937 to 1946, Bud played on the 1943 World Series championship squad that stopped St. Louis. Bud started for the Yankees in the second and last game of the series. As a coach of the Monarchs, he rolled up a 423‑363‑6 record and was honored by the NCAA as the Eastern Regional coach of the year in 1963 and ‘64 and National Coach Of the Year in 1964. His Monarchs won the NCAA College Division Eastern Regional championship in 1963 and 1964 and took second in 1965. Bud not only coached baseball, but he was the men’s basketball head coach from 1948‑1965, compiling a 198‑163 record and posting 16 winning seasons. He served as the University’s athletic director from 1963‑1970. Following his retirement it was only fitting to honor Bud with the naming of the new baseball stadium in 1983 and with the adoption of the blue and white pin stripes of the Yankees on uniforms the following year, which coincides with the University’s new school colors, adopted in 1986.
