Looking for the call sign of a Spitfire
 

Someone want to know this about a plane.

It’s been a while, I still ask if anyone may know Ron and which Spitfire he was flying at the time that he was shot down. I do know that the first 2 letters on the fuselage were DM — but the last “A to Z” would love to know as I wish to build a model of a Spitfire Mk XVI with his call letters

I wrote a post on my blog about 403 Squadron

This is the pilot.

BEASLEY, JOSEPH RONALD F/O(P) J23867.
From, Ottawa Ontario. Killed in action Dec 24/44. #416 City of Oshawa Squadron (Ad Soltum Paratus). F/O Beasley was killed when his Spitfire aircraft # SM277 was shot down by flak at Malmedy, Belgium. Flying Officer Pilot Beasley is buried in the War Cemetery, Leopoldsburg, Limburg, Belgium.

Regarding the Sqn codes my notes say that they used DN rather than DM.

Sorry I don't know the individual code but don't give up as this forum gave me a code I was searching for after 10 years!
