Re: Albacore in Egypt, 1942

The Admiralty War Diaries for August 1942 mention almost nightly Albacore bombing attacks on German and Italian landing craft at sea and in harbors, but provide no details. The destruction of several barges and other ships is confirmed by enemy reports. The Albacores operated from Dekhela Airfield, Alexandria.
