Re: Individual letter on F/Lt. Frederick Hilley Bradford's P-51 Mustang MK.IV?

It is my understanding that the first 30 Mustang IVs were delivered with camouflage, the remaining Mustang IVAs being in NM/silver finish. Camouflage was gradually removed during the service.
Red spinners were applied to 306 Sqn Mustangs, so I doubt if any other Squadron had such markings as well. I am wondering, was not 19 Sqn supposed to have white-blue spinners instead? Ah, 316 Sqn (white-red) was never at Peterhead!
