Re: USS COWPENS landing
Many thanks for date correction. The "Mighty Moo" says 24 Feb. for the Tokyo raids and I mis-read the accident as the same date; "Navsource" says January.
Lee's "Cowpens" diary is p.44 for March 1; losses listed as 2-VF over the side, 3-VF wrecked on deck, 2-VF repaired as "duds" and 2-VF damaged but repairable.
I suspect changes of underwear require all round.
Thanks again
Nick
