A long shot perhaps but AZ was also used by a USAAF 8th AF unit named 4 GTTF. This unit is known to have operated Havocs. Since 1459th Flight was not disbanded until 25 Jan 1943, it certainly was in existance by the time 8th AF established itself in Britain. There just might have been some connection there.....
Problem is that I cannot find this GTTF unit in any of my books about the 8th AF, so I am a bit stumped over that. What did actually GTTF stand for?
