Wildcat unit, victories 1 Feb 1943
During first evacuation run of KE operation, on 1 Feb 1943 Japanese destroyers were attacked in the evening by CAF and 13 AF planes. I know that there were 17 SBDs from VMSB-234, 7 TBFs from VMSB-131, 4 P-39s from 67 FS, 4 P-40s from 44 FS and 17 Wildcats. I'm interested in last ones. Which unit(s) were they from and how many victories were claimed? VMF-112 was in action earlier that day, over DeHaven and claimed 21 victories, but over Tokyo Express?
Regards,
Chris
