B-25 - India-Burma Malaria Spraying Flight

Next to the many ground-based (US) Malaria Control Units in the CBI, there also was the India-Burma Malaria Spraying Flight, operating from Chabua (Assam, NE India). This under the India-Burma Air Service Command.

Some (3?) war-weary B-25s were installed with spraying tanks at Bangalore Air Depot to do the highly necessary anti-mosquito flights. This end 1944/early 1945.

Any info welcome about the serials of the B-25s which (or is that) underwent conversion to "Skeeter Beaters".

Thanks & regards,

Leendert
