Squadron Code for 515 (BS) Sqn.

Every reference I have seen indicates that 515 Sqn. was issued the code 3P when it reequipped with the Mosquito FB.VI and joined 100 (BS) Group. However photographic evidence shows that the squadrons aircraft actually bore the code P3 at least to the end of October 1944 and possibly later. This was possibly an error made at squadron level since P3 was assigned to 692 Sqn. which was a Mosquito eqipped light bomber unit.

Can anyone tell me more precisely when the squadron code was corrected to 3P?

Thanks,
Tom
