67 and other RAF squadrons Burma?

Hello.

I'm writing a short history of the American Volunteer Group (AVG or 'Flying Tigers').

As a sidebar, I want to include the very significant support on the ground and in the air that the RAF played in the defense of Rangoon and Burma during late 1941.

The AVG gathered much publicity and through time has taken on legendary status, but much of their success was due to the help of the RAF and local citizens.

In particular, 67 Sq with its Buffalos and 45 Sq with its Blenheims were in the thick of it with the AVG. I'd like to get that into the story.

Any help on good, available sources would be greatly appreciated.
