Scope and content

Describes an American incendiary bomb and the concerns relating to its performance. SZ explains when and how to use sortie records. SZ stresses that he will not accept judgements about the character of weapons responsible for damage, from the characteristics of the damage alone. The Palermo fire report had been completed. Bird is free to proceed to Catania or Naples once the Messina survey is complete.
