Re: Werner Christie & Mustang
Hi Ragnar,
You´re absolutely right about Hunsdon Wing and its Squadrons.
The 150 Wing was formed at Bradwell Bay on 8th March 1944, became a Fighter Wing on 12th May 1944 and was disbanded on 8th March 1945. It consisted of the No.3, No.56 and No.486 Sqn. It moved to B-60 on the Continent on 28/9/44. The number of the Wing was changed for 122. I don´t know exactly when. I think the 150 continued with other Squadrons in home station(s).
Christie became Wing Leader of 150 Mustang Wing at Andrews Field in February 1945. There were five Squadrons there then. The 19, 122, 306, 315 and 316. I believe Poles had own wing so first two English Squadrons are candidates they were in the 150 Wing till the 8th March.
Regards,
Michal
