Can anyone help me with my history project?

I am an air cadet in search of information for a history project my squdron is doing for our upcoming aviation day.

The information we have been given is this:

RAF.43Grp.RMU1940

After Dunkirk, 3000 men of No.21 Aircraft Depot were withdrawn to Henlow, where they worked on unpacking, assembling, testing, modifying and repairing Hurricanes1941 Operation "Quick Force" involved 50 to 100 fitters serving on HMS Furious, and other carriers, dismantling Hurricanes for transport to Malta.

I would be extremely grateful if anyone has any sort of information on this, if they could share it with me, as I currently have none at all.

I have tried google and found nothing!

Thank you!

Cdt Pearson

Chase your library to obtain the book Hurricanes over Malta, by Brian Cull, published by Grub Street, which will give details of all the Hurricane delivery trips (and the use put to them). I doubt if it will give much information about the MUs, however.
