Narrated again by Harry 'Cros' Crosby, "Part Two" sees the 100th Bomb Group (aka the Bloody Hundred, and through two epic instalments, you can see why they are given that unfortunate nickname) goes after a target in Norway, and we see the vomit-prone navigator with another, Crosby.
The episode is busy: there is a navigation error, a difference of opinion between the Americans of the Army Air Force and their British cousins in the Royal Air Force on day vs. Night bombing, a crash landing and, finally after their first mission was scrubbed, a victory.
