'US' was used by 56 Sqdn in the European theatre.

First the US/British Armies invaded North Africa (1) and after they (and the British 8th Army from the East) drove the Axis out through Tunisia the Allied armies then invaded Sicily (2) from North Africa and on into Italy. Later they invaded Normandy, D-Day (3).

Does that answer your question?

Yes, No.1 Squadron RAAF only operated over Malaya from 1940 to 1942 using the 'US' code.

I think we are getting off-topic and I'm not sure I understand the question but USA could have considered any Axis coastline for entry into Europe (by the way, going in through Gibralta would have violated Spain's neutrality). Of course many options were probably strategically impossible.

Take your pick from the Map attached. Blue is Axis territory.

What in the world is Xilon going on about?

[JG53Frankyboy]

i guess he is asking what seaway the US forces should use to reach european soil-

With Gibraltar he ment the sea strait as entrance to the mediteranien sea. Only other way to enter the Med is via the Suezchannel

But please, dont quote him, its just hard to read his stuff - i have him on my ignore list (and he is the only one in this forum )
