Operation 15 was an attack on marshalling yards at Gonzia, and was graded as 'Apple'.
Operation 16 was an attack on marshalling yards at Conegliano, and including two packets of Window and bundles of leaflets. Result of the attack was 'Orange' and his aircraft nearly collided with the squadron leader over the target!
