Operational Record Books at Group Level

[Mikkel Plannthin]

May I pose another question regarding ORBs, namely the content of the wing ORBs?

I am among other units interested in the Norwegian squadrons since a number of Danish pilots was attached to RNoAF during the war. Two of these were attached to the same wing: 132 airfield (later wing) - AIR 26/193.

Therefore, I would be interested in the amount of information that could be extracted from Wing ORB in addition to the sqn ORBs.

TIA,
Mikkel

ORB's depend on what was written up at the time. Some squadron ORB's are excellent, while others are vague.

I'm doing a visit to the NA this week. Want me to check out this wing ORB for you and report back?

Regards

Andy

As with squadron ORBs, wing ORBs are sometimes excellent, sometimes pretty sketchy. My specialty is 127 Wing of 2ndTAF and it is very complete, very well written and very accurate.

Good Luck

I hold the bulk of the 125 Airfield/Wing ORB and I concur with the statements made by Dave above.
