VC-65 aerial victories
Found the War Diary of VC-65. Ten pilots claim victories, with the squadron claiming 16 Japanese aircraft in aerial combat. The highest scorer being Lt Joseph T Riley with 3-4. No details on the names of the pilots or e/a type or date except 10 were claimed in June at Saipan (I have found basic details on four of these), one at Morotai in September and 5 at Leyte. Most of their records were lost when their carrier was lost, does this include a their combat reports?
best regards Keith |
