15th Bombardment Squadron summer of 1942
Does anyone have a list of the ex-RAF Bostons used by this 8th AF squadron in the UK in the summer of 1942? Did these keep their RAF serials, or did they receive USAAF serials?

All 23 Boston III received kept their British serial numbers

Thanks very much Stig. Any record of AL672 being one of those Bostons?

Yes Bill

AL672 was one of them and it was left behind in UK when the unit transferred to NA. No record of what happened to it though within 8th AF

Cheers
