"CB" Fireflies

[John McGillivray]

There is a possibilitiy that Zuehlke may be wrong in stating that the two Fireflies belonged to “C” Sqn. On the web site which I gave the link to, on the previous post, Lt Irving’s and Sgt. Lamb’s Fireflies are referred to under the section describing the landings of “B” Sqn. Also I have another book which lists the Officers of 1st Hussars’ “C” Sqn. just before D-Day as followers:

Major D’Arcy Marks; Capt. Harry Harrison; Capt. A.B. Conron; Lt. G. Stoner; Lt. G. Henry; Lt. F. Allen; Lt. “Rip” Gordon and Lt William McCormick.

Lt Irving is not listed as being a member of “C” Sqn.

It appears that while the four men in the ammunition detail may have belonged to “C” Sqn., while the two Fireflies and their crews were part of “B” Sqn.

Can someone else confirm this?
