9th weather Reconnaissance squadron in ww2

Suggest you contact Martin at swissmustangs this website for more information. Bob

Thank you for the photo.
After I put the request on here I started watching a baseball game and realised I have some Air Classics that I have bought here and there . Vol. 22 No,5 (1986) had an article on this squadron and photo's.
The photo in the post above that is Lt.George Brooks P-51. He named it "Kansas Aggie" latter with his 2 kill markings.He had 2 with the 363FG ( credit as unconf. Destroyed) and one JU-52 with this squadron.
The article is volume 2 and I don't have the first .I'm guessing Vol, 22 No. 4 has the first part.
If any one may have the first part I'm willing to pay for a good copy,scan or the magazine it self or know who might have back issues this far back.
Thank you Rick

Ken Dahlberg did fly this aircraft with the 354th FG 353rd FS coded FT-K on several occasions, but to my knowledge it never actually was assigned to him. After Charles W. Koenig, the a/c was 'owned' by Charles E. Brown - on 19th September 1944, Ken Dahlberg suffered a crashlanding on A-31 (Gaël) in France - the aircraft was repaired by 26th October 1944 and soon reassigned to the 9th WRS, where it received code 8O-L (remember, the 354th FG got P-47's around that time). Within the 9th WRS, the aircraft was regularly flown by Charles E. Dixon who had to execute another crashlanding at A-68 (Juvincourt) in France on 10th March 1945. The aircraft subsequently was salvaged.

Cordially

Thank you again Martin.

I did get the first part of this article but only photo of one P-51B.
Still interested in any other photo's of the P-51B's of this unit .
Thank you

Hello all,
With much interest I have read the thread on the 9th Weather Reconnaissance Squadron.   As a Belgian citizen living nearby the former airbase of Brustem/St-Trond -  from which airfield the 9th WRS flew the last part of its missions in 1945 with the 386 BG(medium)-  I am most interested in the details of the history of this squadron in general and the presence of the squadron on the St-Trond airfield in particular. 
Some of the details I am looking for are the callsign of the unit during their stay at St-Trond,  and also the emblem of the squadron. 
Can anyone help ?

Read through these articles and there was nothing on the call sign or emblem.
Like said above it was a Provisional squadron so maybe never had these.

Good morning all:
The microfilmed reocrds of the 9th WRX are found on B-0017 frames 0078--336.They are sketchy and not very complete. The OpReps (form 34s) are on the same roll from frames 0127-0336 and cover the dates of June 1944 to July 1945. Offical Squadron status came on 3 June 1944 with 15 pilots and 14 aircraft. The RCs were Hangover and Lowgear. All of the actual flights were known as "Warbler Flights" with the pilots being nicknames as "Orphans of the Storm". I do not have an ID of a P-51B as 8O-X as yet. The Bs that I have positively identified are: 43-6321, 6367, 6390 (MIA), 6391 (MIA), and 6396. There is a possibility that 43-6642 may have been with the 9th WRX
 
Hope that this helps a bit. Sorry that I haven't been around of late but my wife is recovering nicely from major cancer surgery.  Ted51

Thought I give this another bump  and maybe someone has something new.
Don't have the photo/negatives of the P-51B's I was asking about .I wish I can get them back.
But again maybe something new came out or a new person has something on these men.
Thanks for your time.
Rick
