Re: Intruder loss - 1/10/73

Hiya,

Not my normal sort of post but trying to find info Squadron reports and what do they all mean terms in the text, etc on a intruder loss.

May 1972–Feb 1973: The Squadron was deployed on USS Midway and support Linebacker 1 & 2 operations primarily in North Vietnam. This included day & night interdiction and strike missions, as well as Alpha strikes. It also participated in the first three days of the December bombing campaign of Haiphong. (This was the Navy’s longest combat cruise.)


Info below:

Intruder shot down 1 Oct 1973.

The crewmen whose names are on the Midway A-6 Intruder, LT Mike
'Mondo' McCormick pilot and LTJG Alan 'Arlo' Clark, were attached to Navy
A-6 Attack Squadron 115.

An A-6 Intruder on display on the deck of the USS Midway Museum in San Diego with these pilots names on


Thanks Danny.
