Bombing of Boise City -- WWII...

"I was browsing the site and having a great time when I came across the mention of the bombing of the Boise City. When we lived in the Panhandle, we were told that and I just laughed, thinking they were just kidding. Apparently, the Air Force Base in Dalhart (TX) had a practice range for bombers and they guys got confused and thought the courthouse lights were the bombing practice range lights. (I hope they didn't bomb Switzerland thinking it was Germany!) I have done a few searches and it appears what we were told was accurate. Hope that my epistle of knowledge helps." -- Dulcie   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
