Head Injurloa which lined to have a 80 to 80 fatality have been cut to twelve to fourteen por- " cent. After the Tunisian cum pulgn, Major Adami' unit atarted practicing dropping paratroops at night. When the Sicilian invasion atarted, a had storm and poor naviga tion caused the plane to mlsa their scheduled spot by eight miles.
