F/Sgt Charles McCormac's rescue by RAAF Catalina 16/9/42
Hi guys
Charles McCormac described his incredible adventures following his escape from Singapore in his book "You'll Die in Singapore". After six months on the run, he and a companion were plucked from the coast of Sumatra by an RAAF Catalina and flown to Darwin, on 16 September 1942. I understand that the Catalina was on a supply delivery run. Do we know that name of the Catalina pilot? How often were such missions flown to Sumatra (and Java?) Cheers Brian
