Re: SOC Seagull lost July 1942 USS WICHITA
I've forked out the 11USD for a months Fold3 sub (some of you might want to consider this also)
I've reveiwed the Wichita, Washington and Tuscaloosa war diaries and neither of them mention any fatal aircraft loss. The Tuscaloosa happens to DI when other ships in the flotilla launced and recovered planes.
The Washington did losse aircra 6-O-3 on June 12th when it lost a float on landing but the crew were taken on board Wichita. I'm trying to see if there is a diary for ComTaskFor 99, can't see it as of yet.
Wishita and Wasington were ceretainly launcing aircraft throughout July 4th.
More anon.
