Official Squadron Badge of No. 84 Squadron RAF


MPN11, Can't space this properly, but you appear to be right ! 84 were with us at the end in Burma, but had been doing good work with the Chindits earlier. Their C.O.. Wing Cdr Gill was put up for a DSO for it, but the Vengeance was out of favour. so it was scaled down to a DFC.. There is a Thread about him on Military Aviation
"Pungunt" sounds "smelly" to me, looked it up: "Pungo" = "I prick/sting". Understand they fry 'em and eat 'em in Singapore, you would know.....Danny.............................................. ............................................................
