Re: B-24 missions on August 21, 1942.

Thank you, colleagues.
As far as I know, the Alberto Fassio-Pugliola convoy from Piraeus to Tobruk was attacked. In the works of the Italian researcher Lorenzo Colombo, I saw mention of a single attack by 16 Liberators of the RAF and USAAF.
A couple more questions. Were the 158 and 160 RAF squadrons, which operated B-24s, one or two units?
Were the aircraft for the 98th BG specially ferried to the Middle East from the US, or were they assigned the same B-24s that had arrived there in June?
