Re: Blenheims in North Africa - squadrons?

From Bristol Blenheim - A complete history by Graham Warner
11, 14, 39, 45, 55, 84, 113, 203, 223 and 459 were some of the squadrons that used Blenheims in the Western Desert in the end of 1941/beginning of 1942 but the number of quadrons decreased rapidly when several units were sent to the Far East and many others changed to other aircraft.

In the fighting following Operation Torch 13, 18, 114 and 614 squadrons used Blenheims V but suffered heavy losses.
