Day report of the USS Tennessee (BB-43) of 30 July 1944 says that its observation plane was seen to have a mid-air with 'a shore artillery spotting plane'

Tennessee plane was OS2N-1 Kingfisher BuNo 01304 with Ens. Jacques Gordon (and not Genice as in most loss databeses...) and ARM2c William J. Herren (and not Herron as in War Diary of ship). Both killed.

I wonder if the shore based plane was USMC OY-1 BuNo 60504 of VMO-4 with Lt. John A. Cameron and Lt. William C. Jones? Their bodies were found a few days later.

Thanks for any info.
