Re: RAF Bomber Command Group Orders

The Marcel,

the details that you seek may be on file AIR 14/3093 (Group Operational Orders, Dec 1942) or files AIR 14/3094-3096 (Group Operational Orders, Mar-Dec 1942, possibly day raids) at The National Archives, Kew. I don't have copies of the contents of these files myself.

This series of files (AIR 14/3086-3136, Mar 1942-May 1945) contain operational orders for all Bomber Groups, with the documents on the latter files at least being copies received by Bomber Command headquarters.

Amendments to the operational orders after initial transmission were common, although, if you are lucky, the files above will contain the original unaltered order and also the latter amendment on a seperate sheet.

Cheers

Rod
