Re: eBay: Allied intrest

I don't think there is any doubt from the photo that the code was KH-U.
The ORB is again in error.
It lists Sgt Hunt as flying twice on 2 June:
AA979 up 0625
AR439 up 1000
AR439 was not delivered to the sqn until the following day, being lost on 19 August 1942. I can only assume that it was the next wearer of code KH-U (a common problem encountered with ORBs).

Re: eBay: Allied intrest

Hi Stig,
Not finger trouble this time
But The code to me looks like either -
KH ⊙ U
OR
KH⊙D

Serial number AB799, just looked like AD to me BUT it couldn't be as AD799 was a Hampden

Re: eBay: Allied intrest

Stig, Alex, AndyMa - I have more examples, when we have typo - U and J is close to the keyboard and maybe this is the reason.

Have a nice day and enjoy the research :-)

Re: eBay: Allied intrest

GB-X is P2190 of 105 Sqn
F is L5436 of 142 Sqn - the QT part of the code was only worn on one side.
