Re: Buzz Beurling and Doug Lindsay
Found my answer to much of this. In "Angels Eight". Lindsay took command of B Flight on 1 July 1944, replacing FL Hart Finley TE. A Flight was led at the time by FL AR Mackenzie. Both Lindsey and Mackenzie would fly and fight in Korea with the USAF.
Lindsay is certainly promoted to Flight Lieutenant by 10 February 1944 according to the ORB. On 30 January 1944 he is still F/O. He may be with A flight, if we can assume he did fly as a wingman to Beurling for a few sorties in 1943, although I cannot find a single reference to this in October/November 1943.
