bloomed swiftly. The turning wreckage crashed into the water. The fire turned to thick black smoke Lt. Cmdr. Jorgensen who shot down the plane, called his shots for the whole fleet to see. and delivered as he promised.

Just An Incident

All this was just an incident in the broader battle picture. It hap- pened the morning of May 7 while 76 planes from our nest were in the air speeding toward a Japa- nese carrier force that had been located at dawn 175 miles north- east of us. . .

During the afternoon of May 6our air scouts located tire first of the Jap pincers fleet. It was 250 miles northeast of what then was our positions and was described as two big carriers, four heavy cruisers and a dozen or more destroyers. This was the flcet sent to hold the Jomard passage at the southeastern tip oi New Guinea. Rear Adm. Fletcher, in command of the task force, at once turned our force and steamed hard to be in position to hit the Japs the next day.

Locate Japs

Off before dawn the morning of May '7, our scout; did nct find the enemy for some hours. Shortly after 8 dclock, liowcvcr, they made contact. The Japs had split up during the night and our planes found only one carrier. three heavy cruisers, and six destroyers.

The United States air fleet stalking the Japanese consisted of 24 torpedo planes, each iviili one heavy torpedo; 36 scouts and dive bombers each with one 1.000-pound bomb or one SOC-pound bomb and two IOO-pound bomb; and l6 fighter planes to deal with Japa- nese defensive and scout plane pa- trols.

Their course took them along the northern edge of the island of Tagula, then north past the east- ern tip of Mlslma. Ln-Cmdr. Ham- ilton, leading the dive bombers, picked out the Japanese 50 miles away. Visibility was perfect, the sky clcudless and the white wakes of the ves els showed as silver streaks on the emerald-blue sea.

Go For Curler

"We came over at 13.000 feet." LL-Cmdr. Bob Dixon related later.

“Enemy fighter patrols were in the R5

air, but the barely reached us n we eased i’ into our vertical dives. These fighters came rignt on down with us in a terrible free- for-all mlxup, staying with us right to the water. Naturally we went for the carrier first. . . Fighter pilots sitting up at 18,000 feet with the heavy dive bombers reported that Dixon's dive was per- fectly made and his 500-pcund bomb hit the Jap carrier deck

amidsnips. Behind hl.rn Ensign P. °

F, Neely dropped his 500-pounder near the carrier's port side. The blast of Neely's bomb tossed two bumlng planes over the side.

Lieut. J. P. Leppler’; scout bomber was attacked as the dive steepened to the vertical. His rear gunner. John Liska, shot down two Zeros that closed to point blank range, firing their cannon and .25- oaiibre machine guns as they came. Leppler saw a Zero on the tail of the scout ahead of him and veered in the dive enough to get it in the sight of his front guns. This Zero never came out of lLs dive and crashed into the sea. Lepplers 500- pound bomb missed the carrier and he immediately zoomed away to make a second dive from 4.000 feet on a Jap cruiser. One l00-p0und bomb hit the cruiserl; stern.

The scouts’ dives had taken sway the enemy fighter protection and the heavier dive bombers, tot- ing their 1.000 unders, were un- hindered in the r attacks. The few seconds required for the first at- tack had given the accompanying Japanese vessels time to fan out. presumably to give the carrier

manoeuvring room. All the Japa- llese vessels put up o thick anti- aircraft fire.

The heavy dive bombers and the torpedo plane ivsaults were co- ordinated and the Zeros which had followed the scout bombers swept off in an effort to tum aside Lt.- Cmdr. Jimmy Brett's torpedo planes now closing in. Brett radio- ed for fighter assistance. Lleut. Baker and his wingrnan. who had just shot down a Jap seaplane fighter, bored in. Thefy dropped two Zeros and cleaned of the rest. . .

In lpllt Seconds

All this action was taking place within .rplit seconds and actually happened in a shorter space o time lion it now takeovto dell-ll

it. Cmdr. Brett. whose torpedo bombers were close to the water. took advantage of smoke and flame clouds already pouring out of the carrier u they approached. They swung in at m angle l0 tho smoke ocreened them from moot of the glrruiser and destroyed anti-aircraft e.

This enabled thc TBDh (torpedo bomber Douglas) planes in his

squadron to soore hits with 13 cf '

to 0f minutes later. In all. l6 of the 1.- 000-pound bombs, three 500 pound- ers, and l2 torpedoes hit the ship.

Three planes failed to return 1mm the fllshb-all scout bombers. ‘Ilwo were believed destroyed by anti-aircraft fire. The third, flown by Liltlll- Qnlgley; was. landed on Russel. easternmost island of the Louisiades. Quigley and hi; rear ilrutnner were rascued several days a er.

In o. lull I counted up ti“ day’; results. We had stink a large Jap- anese carrier and a cruiser and knocked 23 planes out of the air. Besides this number there were alto the Japanese planes that went down aboard their carrier.
