German fighters continue relentless attacks on the B-17s. One is seen falling into a flat spin and descending rapidly, out of control. German FW-190 fighter join in the attack. B-17 gunners hit one and it explodes and falls. Another B-17 is hit and falls out of control. German fighters regroup in formation as the B-17s enter an area of concentrated antiaircraft ground fire.
