Well , you weren't awake then.
What time wa.s it, Jim?
It says 07 18 37.
You should have been asleep
then.
I have in my notes that you slept to 08:15,
Well, I was like you were.
I wasn ' t sleeping
very good the last--quite often, I had my cover
up watching out the window.
You could al ways
hear everything that was going on the radio, so
you knew pretty well what was going on.
Well, anyway, Cairo and Alexandria were both
clear, but this was the first time we'd seen
them and it took a long time to find the targets- ­
the particular target that we were looking for.
We could find the Red Sea and we could .find the
Mediterranean, obviously.
You could see the
Suez Canal .
You could see the river.
I had
difficulty finding the town of Cairo .
How about
you, Fil., with Alexandria? You were looking for
Alexandria.
I found that one.
You found the town all right, but finding the
airfield that we were supposed to take a picture
of was pretty difficult the first time.
Later on
