Question Kenya - Mau Mau Emergency 1950's - Air Operations

Kenya - Mau Mau Emergency 1950's - Air Operations

Am aware of 1354 Flight (Harvards) and rotational Lincoln's being used against Mau Mau, but has anyone heard of Anson's being used? (in offensive operations)

Reason for asking, a long time friend has stated that Anson's were used - quoting his Mother as source;
in most cases I would have just poo-poo'ed this, but I knew and respected his Mother and know that she knew her Anson's (from her wartime Nursing service)

Still doubtful but feel I must at least ask the question of others more knowledgeable than !
