The lack of published information can perhaps be explained by the fact that a large block of the squadrons daily reports are inexplicably missing from their box in Britains National Archives. After much effort and time, Mike Westrop discovered the missing documents in a Royal Flying Corps War Diary. This pilots log books, and many previously unpublished photographs has enabled the author to produce the first in-depth look at the activities and accomplishments of this forgotten squadron.
