INSIDE A WWII BOMBING RAID: A Real B-17 and B-24 Mission From 1944. The Air War In Color

Witness a complete WWII strategic bombing mission over Germany, from the initial briefing to the perilous return, in this fully restored and colorized version of the 1944 classic documentary, "Target for To-day." This film documents the incredible bravery of the US 8th Air Force crews who flew the B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator deep into enemy territory. Originally produced by the U.S. Army Air Forces, "Target for To-day" is not a Hollywood movie; it is a real-life documentation of a daylight precision bombing raid. There are no actors here—only the actual servicemen, from the generals planning the mission to the young aircrews facing enemy fighters and flak-filled skies. This film was created to show the American public the immense complexity, scale, and human cost of the strategic bombing campaign in Europe. B&W Unrestored Version:    • Target For Today | Original Upscaled B-17 ...   For the first time, this masterpiece of wartime filmmaking has been painstakingly restored, upscaled, and brought to life in full color, offering an unprecedented window into the past. Experience the tension of the pre-dawn briefing, the roar of hundreds of engines, the chilling view through the bombsight, and the anxious wait for every bomber to return. This is one of the most authentic cinematic records of the American air war in Europe ever produced. This Dronescapes presentation preserves a vital piece of history, honoring the courage and sacrifice of the men who flew these dangerous missions.
