Number 605 Squadron was an Intruder Squadron, converting from Bostons onto Mosquito NFIIs in February 1943, with the Squadron's first Mosquito victories coming in March. The Squadron leadership was taken over by Wg Cdr 'Sammy' Hoare in September 1943, who opened his score with the Squadron on his first sortie, and who then scored the 100th kill in March 1944.
Other Squadron pilots went on epic sorties in 1944, including one by Flg Off R. Lelong on 2 October, in which he destroyed six enemy aircraft, claimed one as a Probable, and another 5 as Damaged. The Squadron moved to Europe in September 1944, operating initially from Coxyde in Belgium, then eventually on to Volkel. The unit's Mosquitos were eventually replaced by DH Vampires in July, 1948.
