    77 Squadron decorated itself in glory in New Guinea. initially they flew Kittyhawks, then Spitfires, and finished the war flying P-51 Mustangs.
    My grandfather was in an Ack-Ack crew in Darwin when the Japanese attacked, he claims their crew downed two aircraft but neither was confirmed. This post was edited by Slartibartfast at July 7, 2022 10:10 PM MDT
