232 Sqn losses in early 42

Hi,

Someone has information on the casualties of the 232 Hurricane squadron in the
Pacific over Singapore in early 42 or possible victims of Y. Kuroe.

I only found:

Richard "Rickey" Brooker\'s Hurri MkII shoot down 08.02.42 crashing on east coasr road uninjured

7 February 1942, S/Ldr. Lawrence N. LANDELS was killed in action and was succeeded by S/Ldr. Richard ("Rickey") E.P. BROOKER.

many thanks,
regards
