Missions of No. 1 PRU in 1942
Dear gents,
I look for details of the No. 1 PRU missions in 1942. I cannot find anything at TNA. There are no ORB's before the reorganisation at 19 Oct 1942. There are only appendices of some flights of No. 1 PRU. Later redesigned as No. 540 to 544 Squadron. I look for a mission on 7 May 1942. Flown by a former flight of No. 1 PRU (later No. 540 or 544 Squadron ?). The appendices of A, B, D and E-Flight contains no information about this date. Maybe anyone can help me. Rgds, René |

Hi René,
The file you are interested in is AIR 29/415 which covers 1 PRU during 1942. 1 PRU flew 12 sorties on 07 May 42. Is there a sortie covering a particular area you are interested in? Best Regards Andy Fletcher |
