Re: Fulmar claims
Tom,
Thanks for your note; I have updated my file accordingly. I dug out the report and all the officers except Wallace are shown as (A), but I accept your digging into the Navy List. As a Lt RNVR, Wallace is unlikely to not be (A).
The report (ADM 199/166, page 662 gives the following attack details:
Newman, two attacks. One quarter, opened fire at 400 yards closing to 250 yards. Second attack beam, opened fire at 250 yards closing Fired 750 rounds.
Wood, one beam attack from 300 to 150 yards. Fired 690 rounds.
Wallace, one astern attack from 450 yards closing to 150 yards. Fired 1010 rounds.
Morrison, one beam to quarter attack from 350 yards closing to 200 yards. Fired 450 rounds.
Enjoy!
Frank.
