Straffing over Marrakech, Marocco 10 Nov'42

[Martin Gleeson]

Hallo Jerome,

In 'WILDCATS OVER CASABLANCA' by John W. Lambert, 1992, Phalanx Publishing on page 33 is the following one line;
"A modest force of three Wildcats and one SBD from 'Santee' managed to destroy four French Bombers and a utility aircraft at Chichaoua airport."
Nothing else. No names, aircraft serials or times. The Wildcats were from VGF 29 and the SBD from VGS-29. A map shows Chichaoua relatively near to Marrakech so I presume this is the same attack.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Martin Gleeson.
