I have some information on No 158 Squadron which I will sort and post.The Squadron finally settled down to be the only resident squadon to be based at Lissett,on the outskirts of Bridlington in East Yorkshire when it opened during late February 1943.

The squadron is active, at least its veterans are, and last met in East Yorkshire last September but were down to below 100 in total for the gathering.Their aircrew losses were nearly 900 during war and the squadron was one of these which by December 1945 had been disbanded.

Recently they erected a memorial to a crew lost in Bridlington Bay without survivors.
