In Robert Baily's new painting, three Mustang fighters from the 302nd. Fighter Squadron, 332nd. Fighter Group, have finished their escort part of the mission and now scream across an Austrian marshalling yard at over 300 m.p.h. Selecting a goods train, they bear down with all guns blazing. It so happens that the boxcars contain ammunition, a cargo that will never reach its destination. The resulting explosion causes instant chaos in the rail head, and now poses a serious risk to the well-being of the three pilots who desperately seek an escape from the growing fireball and anticipated secondary explosions Dodging the new threat of flying debris and flak, each pilot firewalls his plan to war emergency power in order to exit the target area.
