<HTML>Beg pardon. He said name one AIRCRAFT, didn\'t he? O.K. Sunderland \"G\" of 423 Squadron (Canada) on August 4, 1943, by U-489.(A RAF Catalina was also damaged.) How \'bout Liberator \"D\" from 200 Squadron, shot down 11 August 43 by U-468. Then there was Halifax \"B\" of 502 Squadron on 22 March 43 by U-338. U-505 bagged Hudson \"L\" from 53 Squadron on 10 Nov. 42. Any keepers of the dolfins out there know what the U.S. sub force\'s batting average was against the Japanese? How \'bout the RN subs vs. The Luftwaffe? tjk </HTML>
