RAAF 80 Squadron was formed in September 1943 and was equipped with the Curtiss P-40 Kittyhawk. On July 29, 1944 Curtiss P-40N 43-23237 was received by 80 Squadron RAAF and assigned ADF number A29-671 and letters BU-O. BU-O was assigned to Lt. Ken Goldring who named the aircraft “Angry Bee”.

Noemfoor Island was a major goal because of three airfields that could be used to support the Allied advance.
