Not exactly "Air Policing", but I am slightly surprised that no seems to recall that our greatly revered and much missed Danny42C no less was actively engaged in using poison gas in India, as related at
Gaining An R.A.F Pilots Brevet In WW II His Post Nos 3071 and 3078 refer and, rather intriguingly since I have started this post by quoting him, I note at Post No 3080 that Chugalug himself states "
Interesting that you were called upon to actually "gas" people Danny."
Oh! I almost forgot to say that the poison gas in question, namely mustard gas, was being dropped for trial purposes only, admittedly in quite alarming circumstances.
