It is about 1,700 airmen who set out to bomb the oil refineries surrounding the city of Ploesti, Romania, on August 1, 1943. Success, they thought, would be a force in ending the war.

Negligible damage resulted at the Ploesti refineries, and a few months later, they were operating at 100 percent capacity.
