...clearer weather, the resurgent Luftwaffe showed a burst of offensive strength. Hundreds of German bombers and fighters, supporting the ground attack, were engaged by the U.S. tactical forces, aided by British fighters from The Netherlands. In a wild series of dogfights the Germans lost 143 planes, the Allies...
