  • Canadian Airmen Lost in Wwii by Date 1943
    CANADA'S AIR WAR 1945 updated 21/04/08 January 1945 424 Sqn. and 433 Sqn. begin to re-equip with Lancaster B.I & B.III aircraft (RCAF Sqns.). 443 Sqn. begins to re-equip with Spitfire XIV and XIVe aircraft (RCAF Sqns.). Helicopter Training School established in England on Sikorsky Hoverfly I helicopters. One of these aircraft is transferred to the RCAF. An additional 16 PLUTO fuel pipelines are laid under the English Channel to points in France (Oxford). Japanese airstrip at Sandakan, Borneo, is put out of action by Allied bombing. Built with forced labour by some 3,600 Indonesian civilians and 2,400 Australian and British PoWs captured at Singapore (of which only some 1,900 were still alive at this time). It is decided to abandon the airfield. Between January and March the prisoners are force marched in groups to a new location 160 miles away, but most cannot complete the journey due to disease and malnutrition, and are killed by their guards. Only 6 Australian servicemen are found alive from this group at the end of the war, having escaped from the column, and only 3 of these survived to testify against their guards. All the remaining enlisted RAF prisoners of 205 Sqn., captured at Singapore and Indonesia, died in these death marches (Jardine, wikipedia). On the Russian front Soviet and Allied air forces (French, Czechoslovakian, Polish, etc, units flying under Soviet command) on their front with Germany total over 16,000 fighters, bombers, dive bombers and ground attack aircraft (Passingham & Klepacki). During January #2 Flying Instructor School, Pearce, Alberta, closes (http://www.bombercrew.com/BCATP.htm).

  • A Summary of Palau's Typhoon History 1945-2013
    A Summary of Palau’s Typhoon History 1945-2013 Coral Reef Research Foundation, Palau Dec, 2014 © Coral Reef Research Foundation 2014 Suggested citation: Coral Reef Research Foundation, 2014. A Summary of Palau’s Typhoon History. Technical Report, 17pp. www.coralreefpalau.org Additions and suggestions welcome. Please email: [email protected] 2 Summary: Since 1945 Palau has had 68 recorded typhoons, tropical storms or tropical depressions come within 200 nmi of its islands or reefs. At their nearest point to Palau, 20 of these were typhoon strength with winds ≥64kts, or an average of 1 typhoon every 3 years. November and December had the highest number of significant storms; July had none over 40 kts and August had no recorded storms. Data Compilation: Storms within 200 nmi (nautical miles) of Palau were identified from the Digital Typhoon, National Institute of Informatics, Japan web site (http://agora.ex.nii.ac.jp/digital- typhoon/reference/besttrack.html.en). The storm tracks and intensities were then obtained from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) (https://metoc.ndbc.noaa.gov/en/JTWC/). Three storm categories were used following the JTWC: Tropical Depression, winds ≤ 33 kts; Tropical Storm, winds 34-63 kts; Typhoon ≥64kts. All track data was from the JTWC archives. Tracks were plotted on Google Earth and the nearest distance to land or reef, and bearing from Palau, were measured; maximum sustained wind speed in knots (nautical miles/hr) at that point was recorded. Typhoon names were taken from the Digital Typhoon site, but typhoon numbers for the same typhoon were from the JTWC archives.

  • Dead in the Water, Bouncing Around in the Pacific Ocean, Drifting Wherever the Wind and Water Currents Take You, and You’Re Still a Long Way from Home Port?
    Hello Net Tender Shipmates How would you feel, if you were onboard a small ship, a Net Tender, and had lost all propulsion power, and you are alone (solo), no other ships present to take you in tow, you are about four days out (I think) on your voyage, in the middle of the ocean, you make the damage assessment of the problem and realize this is no quick fix, and you are dead in the water, bouncing around in the Pacific ocean, drifting wherever the wind and water currents take you, and you’re still a long way from home port? This happened to the net tender, The USS Chinquapin AN 17 on her voyage across the Pacific ocean, as she headed home from the war, after surviving all the hostilities, and that raging typhoon Louise at the end of the war, in Okinawa in WW II. She was finally overcome by the wounds she sustained in that typhoon. Preface; Some time ago I did a little write on how my ship, The USS Chinquapin AN-17 survived typhoon Louise at Okinawa, at the end of WW-II. We suddenly found ourselves hemmed in the harbor with a bunch of runaway ships in the middle of a Typhoon which has the distinction of inflicting the greatest single loss in our Navy’s history. What was happening to us just didn’t seem real, it was so sudden, so hellish, so fierce, it may even seem like a,” tale that is told,” or something out of a, Joules Verne novel, this little net tender was suddenly caught up in a whirlwind so strong Buckner Bay became a hugh churning pot with ships great and small floundering around helplessly, with some of the large ships ending up great distances from the shore line.
