For example Dakota IV KN381 PU-G was in India in April 1945.

Hi Zoren,

Thank you I have checked this squadron, but sadly no its not them. It would appear that the Indian PoWs were captured in North Africa / Italy and flown back from Europe. I'd really like to know who was flying them into Methwold in April / May 1945. Any pointers most welcome.

Thank you again.

Steve
