Re: RN aerial claims on D-Day (friendly fire)

Adriano,
For the USN you would have to go through the Action Reports for all the ships involved at Normandy. The list can be found in the relevent volume of Morison. The Action Reports are in Record Group 38 at NARA II in College Park. For any ship firing on aircraft there should be an A/A report, either as part of the Action Report, or as a separate report.

You will have to go there of course. Just start with the Battleships, and work your way down. Probably need to check them all, since undoubtedly several ships fired at the same aircraft.

Enjoy!

Frank.
