800 Sqn Hellcats Aegean 1944 friendly fire incident

Hi guys

In October 1944, four Hellcats of 800 Squadron operating from HMS Emperor sadly strafed four Coastal Forces MTBs in a bay on the Greek island of Skopelos. Three of the craft were damaged and there were casualties.

Can anyone provide information, please?

Cheers
Brian
