<strong>Wilhelm</strong> <strong>Mohr</strong>. On World War II S’Hertogenbosch, and finally B 106 Twente in North-East Holland. The last day of operations was 21 April 1945. The two squadrons were then withdrawn from 2 ATAF, and leaving all equipment behind was transferred to 11 Group Fighter Command in preparation for possible deployment in Norway. On 4 may the Germans capitulated, but the situation as regards Norway remained uncertain until 7 May. By then the servicing of the Wing was on the move towards the UK where it was re-equipped. 36 Spitfires crossed to Norway from Dyce on 22 May; the ground personnel with their equipment followed by sea. 56
Above is the «Operational Record Book» for 332 (N) Squadron on 6. June 1944 – «D-Day». Since the text is a bit blurred, the text is repeated below: On this first invasion day of Europe 332 Squadron made 4 Patrol flights over the channel and the battle fields of Northern France. At 0715 hours the squadron took off on the first patrol flight, led by Major Christie. They returned safely at 0920 hours. 2 nd flight was led by major Christie too. They took off at 1215 hours and returned at 1420 hours. On the third flight Major Christie led, but due to trouble with the drop tank he had to return after 15 min. and Capt. Ryg took over. They had taken off at 1630 hours and landed at 1810 hours. The 4 th flight was led by w/c Berg. They took off at 2040 hours and returned at 2245. During these 4 patrols they met no enemy fighter opposition and almost no flak was experienced. Weather was 5-8/10ths cloud and visibility good. Landing barges and ships streaming to and from the French coast were clearly seen, as well as the landing operations, which seemed not to encounter much opposition. One destroyer, presumably American, was observed in sinking condition while rescue work was going on. 32 Figure 6: ’Operations Record Book’, 332 (N) Squadron – D-Day, 06.06.1944 32 Royal Air Force, Summary of events, 06.06.1944, 332 (N) Squadron, Operations Record Book, June 1944, p. 1. 57
