June 1944 was a noteworthy month for Anderson and his fellow 357th Fighter Group flyers. Beginning with D-Day, numerous ground support fighter-bomber missions were flown to assist the invading Allied troops. This included the first use in the European Theater of Operations of gasoline-filled belly tanks as firebombs against railroad targets. On 29 June, Anderson's Group flew bomber escort on a historic Eighth Air Force mission, which dispatched 1,150 B-17s and B-24s. Only 17 bombers were lost--none to enemy fighters. That day, Anderson was the Group's high scorer with three FW-190s. After 5 months of combat, Anderson led the 20 aces in the 357th with a total of 11 1/4 victories.
