smudge,
what became known as the SF crews were originally in my recollection
the individual squadron 'pathfinder' crews. In a previous thread I have given my version of how this came about. Most of them were transferred to the new SF Flight which was then attached to 36 Sqn. When 36 disbanded they were attached to 47.
Pics are from GW1. Note the French C160 I referred to earlier.
Middle pic is of our crew under the palm trees as an acknowledgement of the sqn badge.
