Shipping

Sortie 2 (if possible)

NS/RCAF targets of opportunity
Heavy Bombardment Return to restrike previous targets
352/475 Provide Combat Air Patrol over strike areas

Fighters- Dont get low against the Ki44's

Everyone- Kill the radars and coordinate with each other so there is fighter covers near the strikes able to help with enemy fighters.

If we limit our losses and kill some enemy and ground targets we will have accomplished the goal.

Coast Watch F44 is a friendly outpost, sir.

Intel reports they have been compromised....danger close, initials RSS.

Good Catch Wolf!

I suppose my current distaste for South Pacific commonwealth citizens is showing.

Don't bomb 44 either.

How about a strafing run

RCAF 127 Wing will have some Mossies, but some of the folks who did not die may take the B25H. Won't know till show time.

Dawger <S>
Following is the operational orders for 127 Wing, orders subject to change shortly after take off as always.

OK lads, since we have three that must be in Mossies and one of our three targets is 40 to 60 miles away from the other two this is the plan.

Mossie Flight- ( F72) Deak, Beaver and Swede will lift at T + 8, heading 335 degrees NOE to attack the radar outpost at 34. 4-500#, petrol 40 % or so. In and out.

Mitchell Flight- (F 72) Muzz, Yukone Barvic WCAT and Jaxon, (and others if they show) will Lift T + 8 heading around 08 (eight) degrees for attacks on the radar at
37 and 38. I will leave it up to flight lead at what altitude you ingress to, but remember you do have the norden bombsight so allow time to green up your sights.
6 –500 #, with petrol load out of your choosing as well.

That is all for now, get in and review location of radar sites.

Swede-
