Re: Dakota Details Needed.
Hello,
KG627 and KJ925 in 620 Sqn?
If listed in sqn's orb, than yes.
For KG627 I only know that she served in the Middle East.
KJ925 was coded 'L' in 357 (Special Duties) Squadron in 1945 and flew from India and Burma, mostly from Jessore and Mingaladon (Rangoon).
Later was in 62 Sqn, but 62 Sqn used Dakota IVs in three sqn's incarnations:
XI.1945-III.1946 (KJ925 was possibly in the Middle East during that period)
IX.1946-VIII,1947, at Mingaladon, Palam III.1947, Mauripur III-VIII.1947.
XII.1947-VI.1949, Manston (Berlin airlift).
Not mentioned in Your question, but interesting to me, is another 357's Dakota IV, KJ926 coded 'M' that survived until today and is at display at Zemunik (Zadar), Croatia.
