[B]In Saving Private Ryan, when Capt Miller reaches the town, and the AB Sarge is telling Miller what has happened he say, " They pounded the hell out of us with 88s."
Is he talking about 88mm FlaK guns, or JU-88 bombers. I just realized that I didn't know. [/B][/QUOTE]
I would guess 88mm guns. I will have to watch the movie again, but I don't think the Germans had much luck getting close air support in Normandy.
Could be wrong, though...
Also, I don't think the Junkers were often refered to as "88's" as commonly as the gun was. So that also makes me think they were refering to the gun.
