They raided Tonelei harbor Oct 22, 1942 and supposedly torpedoed a cruiser and sank a DD, but no mention of it in the Official USN Chronology...

Must be out of synch

Anyway, another Black Cat was credited with a Chitose-type seaplane carrier and two DEs that were refueling from her - all sunk in a single attack 23 September 1944 in the PI.

Again, USN Official Chronology mentions this not...

VP-33 is credited with sinking (and damaging) more ships than any other squadron during the war... and was credited with sinking 43 ships during 1 month for 104,000 tons... and damaging another 20.

And lo, the thread didst reach 1000 pages.� And the thread didst smite the unbelievers and the doubters and those who wore their trouser in such manner that their undergarments were visible.� And the true believers were joyful and didst rejoice merrily and all was good in the land of the thread.
