Re: US cargo aircraft shot down January 1944
Brian,
I received word that C-54 42-72346 and 42-72368 were both assigned to transport units in the Pacific in November 1944 and that both were condemned there on 23 March 1945 for unspecified reasons.
So far I think that when HMS Striker is involved, only the shoot down of 41-37274 off the Azores on 25 March 1944 holds.
Regards,
Leendert
PS ATC must have had a mix of civilian and military pilots.
