Interdiction Missions could be in response to calls by Ground Forces in need
of Air Support.
Preventing Troop / Vehicle Movements / Convoys
Ship Convoys

Shipping sweeps and attacks against supply areas, rail lines, etc.. Tactical missions (as opposed to strategic missions) interrupting the enemies ability to counterattack.

Thanx for the replies shoos and k9...my Dad had an "Interdiction " on 9-12-44 (his only one of 56  missions) between Utarom on 9-6 and Langoan(M) on 9-19..that would have been right after getting to Hollandia with the 75th on 9-1-44..wonder what went on???
