Re: 107 Sqn RAF
David
Sorry I have no more info. What I gave you was from W R Chorley's " Bomber Command Losses" for 1943. The only point I missed out (as I thought it was irrelevant to you) is that this was the last Boston written off by 107 prior to them transferring to 2nd Tactical Air Force. Some body may have the ORB on this forum but if not try asking on the RAF Commands Forum as well. Good luck John Sqn code was OM - Chorley does not state the individual A/C number in this case.
