------- The Straffers -------
Rabaul, November 2nd 1943
Rabaul, like Truk, her sister in the Carolines, was
destined to be by-passed by our invasion forces, but
would be completely cleared of all air and naval power
in the process. There were many strikes carried out
against Rabaul; the most bloody of all probably being that
of 2 November 1943. Intelligence reported Simpson Harbor
to be packed with ships. General Kenny put nine B-25
squadrons (all straffers) and six covering squadrons of
P-38s into the air and headed them out for Rabaul.
