From: Tobias Corbett
Dear Ministry of Defence,
I am writing to you to request information regarding the unit insignia of the recently restablished No.62 Squadron RNZAF. Specifically, I would like to know:
a) If 62 Squadron has been issued a 'crest' in-line with other numbered squadrons as seen in Table 5-2, Part 5 of the NZAP 207 RNZAF Dress Instructions?
b) If not, why? as it would make it the only numbered squadron to not have a crest.
Regards,
Tobias Corbett
