Re: D-Day markings

While I can't give you any more on this Gladiator issue we have been discussing the same thing when it comes to 333 Sqn Mosquitoes. They never flew along the invasion front and not one of the interviewed crew can remember having painted stripes on their Mosquitos. Nevertheless they were a front line unit.
I was surprised to learn about this, but it kind of makes sense, while their operations were far from France.

Having just learned about this book 'Even The Birds Were Walking' I just ordered it from Amazon. While I'm waiting for it to arrive, could you tell if there are any pics of late-war Hudsons in it?
