Re: Norwegian Sq's 331 and 332 duty/task lists

I am not sure exactly what the 'D' number is but this is probably the order number.
The second part of the number appears to be a reference to the target.
An example would be on 25.11.44 the ORB lists D.D.949/CD14.
CD14 is the code for the 'Cloak and Dagger' op on the New Pz Barracks at Bussum that was attacked by the whole 132 Wing.
I have copies of a document from the National Archives that lists all the Summary of results for all the CD Ops flown in Late 44. I think they were in AIR37/671 Tactical reports on Special Targets.
The ORB of 84 Group lists that operational orders are in the appendices.
I have not checked these but can be found in AIR 25/711-722.
Hope this helps.
Andy
