Russian bomber activity near Berlin airlift reported
British fliers in the Berlin airlift said they saw Russian planes drop live bombs about 12 miles northwest of Berlin in the Soviet occupation zone. The incident may be part of large scale war maneuvers announced for today over the Soviet zone and air corridors. Capt. Vincent H. Cookin protested two counter flights by bombers and warned that formation flying would violate four power air rules.
