Almost a visitor rather than a based squadron, spending on 1 week at Bradwell Bay. The squadrons initial fears were found to be justified of Bradwell Bay being very isolated. Their workload was mainly in patrols including a couple of ‘Rhubarb’ intruder missions.
The squadron were then posted to Manston to replace 56 Squadron, who were ‘Livid’ at being replaced there.
