No. 102 Squadron RAAF

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

No. 102 Squadron was a Royal Australian Air Force heavy bomber squadron of World War II. The Squadron was only active for less than nine months before being disbanded.

No. 102 Squadron was formed at Cecil Plains on 31 May 1945. The Squadron's B-24 Liberator bombers arrived in July. While the Squadron began training on these aircraft, the war ended before it reached operational status. Following the end of the war the Squadron operated in the transport role before being disbanded on 19 March 1946.
