Other information

The Patrol members are all recorded on the Nominal Roll as having left Auxiliary Units. It is assumed that this Patrol was disbanded before September 1944 as it is not recorded on the lists created by Major Hancock around then.

We have recorded it with group 2 though that may be inaccurate, as we have no firm evidence for this allocation.
