RAF 550 Squadron and North Killingholme Association

No. 550 Squadron flew from North Killingholme Airbase, Lincolnshire, from January 1944 to October 1945. The RAF 550 Squadron and North Killingholme Association was formed to help the members of the squadron, and their families and friends to keep in touch and to establish a permanent link between the squadron and the village in which it was based. This site is a resource to those researching the squadron history. Information about the association is available from the links below:

As a result of the 2010 reunion electronic copies of 78 of the photos have been recovered and are now online again here.
Thanks to Jim Cameron, son of F/O Les Cameron DFC, for a copy of the original "Bob Stone collection".
The search for electronic copies of the remainder continues.
