The book 'Fighter Squadrons of the RAF' by JDR Rawlings gives "This was perpetuated on its Vampires and although an official colour insignia was approved comprising a tartan design in green , blue and white , there is no record that the squadron's aircraft ever carried it ."

In 'Squadron Histories' by Peter Lewis , Putnam , 1959 , 30s , a coloured illustration for a Vampire FB5 gives green rectangles either side of the roundel with two rows of 5 blue squares per rectangle with each square divided by a white line . The Meteor photo above shows only 4 squares on each rectangle .

Best I can do , good luck !
