Hi John

On 29 April 1944 the 15th AAF struck Toulon with all 17 operational Bomb Groups, of which six were equipped with B-17 and the remainder with B-24, escorted by two Fighter Groups with P-38 and one with P-51. According to the USAAF Chronology a total of 573 heavy bombers participated in the mission, however it is not mentioned how many actually bombed the target or were lost.

Best regards
