[quote=spidge;8963]For Andy: Beaufighters, Bostons and Beauforts, and USAAF Mitchells and Bostons - an all-out attack would be mounted from medium, [b]low and very low altitudes.

Might as well bold the whole lot, Spidgeman! Thanks for thinking of me! Ashamedly, I don't know a lot about the Bismarck Sea action other than snippets I have read here and there. By all accounts an impressive action but wouldn't have wanted to be a Japanese soldier on those ships/lifeboats.
