Re: Vought OS2U floatplane shot down june 25 1944
I have not been able to find any SOC/OS2U losses for late-June 1944 in that part of the world, but surely this is because their pilots were flying spotting missions in Spitfires with VCS-7?
The August 1944 loss off Toulon, on the 21st, involved an SOC-3, BuNo 1083, from USS Philadelphia. It was seen to crash in flames, believed hit by AA.
