Re: IJN escort sunk by Hellcats 9 September 1944

Cheers George. All I can reply is that the ACA states they sank an armed escort, and Duncan himself claims they did in his newspaper interview a few weeks later. They were clear that they saw it sink. I'm going to try and identify it in the VF-15 Tallies. An armed trawler?
