Re: 540 Squadron RAF June 1943

Hello,

John D R Rawlings in his, Coastal, Support and Special Squadrons of the RAF and their Aircraft (Jane's,1982, p.231, states:

No.540 Squadron.

Within a few days of forming it sent a detachment to Gibraltar to provide coverage for the North African landings, and this detachment also flew bomb-damage assessment sorties over Italy whilst there.

I suggest you contact the AHB if you need anything more precise.

Col.
