We have known the author for a number of years now as we live in the same village, he is quite prolific and I have a number of his publications.

It is nice to see the article, I wish though he would have used some up to date photos as she is now numbered and badged up correctly.

Another RAF Q2 Van photo, found by Mike Kelly in the State Library Victoria.

It is captioned: "A visit to an Australian Mosquito Squadron of the R.A.F. in Great Britain. Shows air crew on truck going to briefing. Date [1944?]"

Seeing the markings on the tail gate, I reckon it is in service with the Second Tactical Air Force (2TAF) somewhere in NW Europe rather than in Great Britain?
