Re: Wildcat (Grumman F4F/General Motors FM-1) victories

The only USN FM-1 claim that I am aware of is by Lt(jg) Harold Gordon Hyde, of VC-6, for a damaged Do-217D on December 22, 1943 at 1130, location 6 m, 152 deg from 46-50N, 17-50W.

The Fleet Air Arm has claims for 12 and two half shares with the Wildcat V (FM-1) according to my files. The half shares are with the Wildcat IV.

Enjoy!

Frank.
