Re: Questions About 21 June 1940 Attack on Scharnhorst
Thanks again, Darius!
I'm under the impression that the Swordfish didn't find/attack Scharnhorst - when I wrote about no torpedoes used against her that day I was thinking that no torpedo-armed aircraft had found and attacked her (I should have made that clear).
From reading through the ORBs I find that 224 Squadron's Hudsons, 233 Squadron's Hudsons, and 42 Squadron's Beauforts were all armed with two 500lb. SAP bombs.
Have I missed a torpedo attack that was made? (I know far less about the FAA as AFAIK their ORBs haven't been digitized.)
