There is some mismatched information about operations on 18-19.Oct.1943 in the MTO. On both days RAF Beaufighters escorting 4 B-25Gs from the 321-st BG (the detached squadron in Gambut, Libya) did attack German boats and ships, but none of this a/cs had torpedoes. Sinfra was hit by a torpedo AFAIK. There is a description of this attack by RAF Wellingtons from No.38 squadron online - check here:The unit that sank the Sinfra was the 38 Squadron ... I continue to ask for your help: I found that the 38 Squadron was equipped on the Aegean sea with the Wellington Mk VIIs with ASV radar. Correct?
thanks again Oriano....
Doch!The Sinfra wasn't torpedoed, she wss bombed and strafed.
Hi Oriano!Previously just at sea the Sinfra had been attacked (and hit by a bomb if I correctly understood y) from the B25 Mitchell of the 321 Bombardement Group departed from the Gambut airport.
thanks again
Oriano
Hi Oriano!I follow you very carefully:
on Americans so there are discrepancies as you have perfectly pointed out .......
while on the English, to read the motivations of the medals, it should be all confirmed ... including torpedoes ... correct?
Thank you very much.
