Re: USN units operating out of Grand Cayman

Chris,

The Naval Air Facility at Georgetown, Grand Cayman was established on 13 July 1942.
Units (detachments really) identified so far are VP-202 (28 Feb 43-18 Nov 43), VP-208 (15 Nov 43 - ?) and VP-213 (1 May 44 - 1 Nov 44).

I believe they all flew with PBM Mariners.

The 14 May 1942 USN a/c looking for U-125 must have been from somewhere else.

Regards,

Leendert
