Call Letters - 05/31/2008 06:20:08 PM
As relatively little seems to be known of the 81st FtrGrp this is probably a waste of
time but I'm trying to establish the call letters for both the 91st & 92d FtrSqdns. The
only thing I have been able to nail down for certain is the letter 'Q' for the 93d FtrSqdn.

If anyone has any photos of 81st FtrGrp aircraft or information regarding the matter
of squadron call letters I would like to hear from you.

Bob

Thanks Mike, it's the codes used by the 81srFG while assigned
to the Twelfth AAF that I'm having a real problem with. Photo
documentation while serving in the MTO seems to be almost
nonexistent, and so far I haven't had much luck locating any
written documentation that sheds any light on this matter.
