Re: Were 303 squadron flights named after cities?
Keith a quick note, the 2 "Flights" you mentioned may be the 2 pre-war units which formed 303 Sqn. (111 Esk. Kosciuszko and 112, at Warsaw). 303 retained 111's insignia with the stars and stripes. 316 was re-formed from 113 and 114 Esk. at Warsaw, adopting 113's "Owl" on Spitfires and Mustangs. Hence both squadrons were dedicated "Warsaw" within the RAF.
