A-24 - 12/08/2006 04:57:26 PM
Does someone have information on an A-24? Also, MACRs 2599 & 2601, show two A-24 belonging to the 531BG(?)  missing on 16 Feb 1944. Having trouble locating info on the 531 BG. Can anyone help?
Thanks
George

George,

A-24 is the Army version of the Navy SBD (Scout Bomber Douglas/Slow But Deadly) dive bomber.
