The weather was bad and visibility poor. Shortly after passing Kea Island, north of the Rymlades Group, and on a south west\u00a0course, a small vessel was observed. This was found to be part of a convoy of five vessels escorted by several aircraft including an autogyro. The Marauders separated to launch an attack. Two messages were received from FK 375 that fighters were attacking and the other that machine was damaged and would have to force land but torpedo attack delivered before fighter engagement. No further news received from aircraft or of crew.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-1576\" src=\"https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/British_B-26_Marauder_Mk_IA_of_14_Sqn_RAF_FK375_1942-1024x822.jpg\" alt=\"British_B-26_Marauder_Mk_IA_of_14_Sqn_RAF_FK375_1942\" width=\"640\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/British_B-26_Marauder_Mk_IA_of_14_Sqn_RAF_FK375_1942-1024x822.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/British_B-26_Marauder_Mk_IA_of_14_Sqn_RAF_FK375_1942-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/British_B-26_Marauder_Mk_IA_of_14_Sqn_RAF_FK375_1942-186x150.jpg 186w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/British_B-26_Marauder_Mk_IA_of_14_Sqn_RAF_FK375_1942-150x120.jpg 150w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/British_B-26_Marauder_Mk_IA_of_14_Sqn_RAF_FK375_1942.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<address>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 B-26 Marauder MkIA FK375 of 14 Sqn RAF _1942<\/address>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u0397 \u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c6\u03bf\u03c1\u03ac \u03c4\u03b7\u03c2 \u03bc\u03bf\u03af\u03c1\u03b1\u03c2 \u03c3\u03c7\u03b5\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac \u03bc\u03b5 \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03b1\u03c0\u03ce\u03bb\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1 \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u00a0Marauder FK 375.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-rec.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1623 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-rec.jpg\" alt=\"aviation archaeology Greece FK375-rec\" width=\"587\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-rec.jpg 900w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-rec-300x129.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-rec-250x107.jpg 250w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-rec-150x64.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 587px) 100vw, 587px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-sum.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1624 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-sum.jpg\" alt=\"aviation archaeology Greece FK375-sum\" width=\"476\" height=\"145\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-sum.jpg 735w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-sum-300x91.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-sum-250x76.jpg 250w, https:\/\/aviationarchaeology.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/FK375-sum-150x45.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 476px) 100vw, 476px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Lt Young (Pilot of FK 375) who became a POW later stated \u201cForced to make landing on sea off Seriphas Island.
