Squadron number of Wellington LP574, lost 22-23 November 1944?

Dear all,

For the NJWD 2nd ed. research I am looking for the Squadron number of Wellington LP574. During the 22-23 November 1944 Szombately raid, it was shot down by a night fighter ca. 21.00 hrs, exploding in mid-air over Kuriaputza, 1 km SE of Pordefolde.

Cheers and thanks for any details, Theo
