I was a member of 99 Sqn, but very much post-war, but still have various historical notes.
These show that 99 was in India from 1942 onwards at: Ambala, Pandaveswar, Dirigi, Chaklala, Jessore and Dhubalia flying Wellingtons and later Liberators.

With their Liberator VI's they left for Cocos Islands in July 1945, while there they flew anti-shipping strikes over the Dutch East Indies. They were at Cocos until 15th November 1945 when they disbanded, only to reform two days later at Lyneham as a transport squadron with Yorks.
