Re: Squadron Code for 515 (BS) Sqn.
Stig,
In Confounding the Reich: The Operational History of 100 Group (Bomber Support) RAF by Bowman & Cushing there are a number of photos: Page 74 shows a lineup of P3 coded FB.VIs dated 11 Aug. 44. Page 80 has a photo of NS993 P3-T from Sept. 44. Page 116 shows PZ344 P3-E and PZ217 P3-K dated 29 Oct. 44. Page 158 shows NS933 P3-G undated. The first photo of a 3P coded Mossie (RS566) dated from around the end of Dec. 44. (Page 161) Two photos also can be found in Birtles' Mosquito Fighter Squadrons in Focus. The same one of NS993 P3-T as noted above and also a 3P coded PZ338 in a photo dated 4 Nov. 44. So it would seem that, if these dates are correct, the change occured around the beginning of November. Tom

Re: Squadron Code for 515 (BS) Sqn.
Thanks Tom
Have none of your references. I'll ask Andrew Thomas if he has any opinion. Cheers Stig
