Re: Australian Spitfires
Hi guys
Although I am working on a book on Darwin, I haven't reached the 1943 period as yet, so relied on published material for my information.
'Japanese Naval aces & Fighter Units in WW2' (Hata/Izawa) states PO1c Terai FTR Darwin 7/9/43 (Appendix B, page 384); also on page 283 that PO1c Yasuda killed Dutch Easi Indies 15/5/43 (probably not an operation against Darwin, my mistake)
'Japanese Army AF Fighter Units and Their Aces' (Hata/Izawa/Shores) states (page 295) that Lt Kuroishi FTR Darwin 22/6/43.
I have yet to do my own research.
Cheers
Brian
