The Royce Special Mission Mindanao
The Royce special mission back to the Philippines consisted
of eleven B-25s and three B-17s which took off from Darwin,
Australia on April 11, 1942 for the 1,500 mile flight to Mindanao.
After arriving at their forward airfields, the planes flew bombing
missions with P-40E fighter escort against Japanese ships,
airfields, and harbor facilities in the Philippines. One B-17 was
destroyed when it was bombed while parked on the airfield, but
the other two B-17s and all the B-26s returned safely to Australia
after 7 days of operations.
