461 Bomber Group a/c

Hello,

I am a little puzzled about the serial number of a 461 BG a/c.
MACR 7212 - a 767BS "loss"

The a/c in Squadron number is given as "61", That "61" would suggest that it was a 767 Bomber Squadron a/c.

However the only "61" that I can find is 44-41120 which is reported to have been assigned to the 766 Bomber Squadron in late July,44.Later she was transferred to another BG.

Has anyone any info on her previous service please ?

The date I have is 22 July 44.which is prior to the 766 BS assignment.
Yet the "61" would make it a 767BS a/c.

Thanks
Alex
