I've just learned that my grandfather was a member of the 70thBS and that the plane just ahead of my grandfather's hit one of the four transport boats with either a 500 or 1000 pound bomb. I've spent the last several months doing a lot of research on Nov 15th, 1942 but would be interested in speaking with anyone who is knowledgeable on the subject. I have a lot of information that I've found through a book written by some of the guys in the 70th just before they passed. Specifically I'd be interested if anyone has details on the supplies and troops that were aboard those 4 transports as well as the destroyer that unloaded troops there along with the transports.
