Hi all,
Just one question. Indian Sloop Indus was bombed and sunk by Japanese airplanes off Akyab 6/4/42. Do you know what time?
Thank you very much
Jordi

Greetings Jordi
Go to the following site. After RIN-1 you can change the Chapter Number for the following chapters.
http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/UN/India/RIN/RIN-1.html
It seems that the original entry into that site is not working, there is plenty there for you to dig. You may find what you want.
Good hunting
Phil

Hi Jordi,
I didn´t find a time, too.
If we aren´t successfull here, I can put this question in an "aircraft" forum - the attack was obviously by land based Betty´s .

Thank you Darius,
The attack was made by 27 Nell bombers, not Betty's.
