Re: D-Day FAA Hellcats
 

Books on the FAA ect The Forgotten Fleet (The BIF and BPF 1944-1945), Carrier Operations in World War 2 Volume 1 (RN carrier ops), Airwar over Burma 1942-1945 (matches or tries to match up FAA claims with Japanese losses).

Other FAA Seafire claims:
10 Nov 1942 off Oran 884 Sqn off the Victorious claimed a Ju 88 damaged there is a still from gun camera footage in the Book "Send Her Victorious" showing smoke coming out of the Starboard engine of this Ju 88. This is not mentioned in Fighters over Tunisia. I think this plane may be from a recon unit or possibly Wekusta 26.

15 Oct 44 near Athens Greece a 809 Sqn Seafire MB150 off the CVE Stalker Lt D. S. Ogle claimed a Ju 88 the Seafire was also fitted with a photo recon camera and there are pictures of the plane going down smoking or in flames. The book Seafire the Spitfire that went to Sea has a still of this. This aircraft could also be from a Recon unit or possibly Wekusta 27 which operated in this area.

I hope this is of some use or interest
