Re: Gc I/2
Andy,
To complete what it is written above, GC ˝ under command of Commandant Fleurquin took off on 9 november to Ajaccio, then 10 november to Bizerte/Sidi Ahmed. On 14 November they were at Meknes after a stop at Sétif/Oudjda and Fez.
It is on 26 december 1943 that 23 pilots and some crews who have been trained on Spit V left Alger on the “Otranto”, an english ship of the Orient Line. They arrived at Greenock on 4 january 1944.
The commanders of ˝ were in december : Cdt Fleurquin, 2nd command Cne Ozanne, 1st Flight Ltt Marchelidon and 2nd flight Cne Lacombe
When they will “renamed” n° 329 squadron, Cdt Fleurquin and Cne Provansal, 1st Flight Ltt Marchelidon and 2nd flight Cne Ozanne.
