Alfred,
Thank you for your reply and my apologies for the late response.
Seems 50ème was some sort of transport unit, consisting of CC I/3 "Corse" and GB I/20 "Lorraine", stationed at Dijon 1945-1946. Still no idea what the mission was for a mixed unit.
Thank you again,
Regards,
P.N.

Look like you are right. An interesting case anyway as both were equiped with Mosquitoes despite their different designations. If you found more informations about them let me know

Regards

Alfred
