Mike:
I'm not sure what information you are after here??? You can do a search
with 'google' for RAF WWII bases for more information. RCAF was Number 6
Bomber Group. The 400 to 450 series of Squadrons were assigned as Canadian
Squadrons.
BCATP, The British Commonwealth Air Training Plan was set up in Canada to
train both aircrews and ground crews for Commonwealth recruits. Many bases
were set up across Canada for this purpose. During the Battle of Britain
around 100 Canadian pilots were attached to RAF fighter command.
