    Thank you so much for sharing this photo. RAF 135 Squadron's motto was: "Pennas ubique monstramus" ("We show our wings everywhere"). 135 Squadron was disbanded at Cuttack on 26th June 1945. Reference: "Fighter Squadrons of the RAF and their aircraft", 1993, by John Rawlings, page 274 and 275, Crecy Books, ISBN 0 947554 24 6. My late father served with this squadron. Always remembered.

    I think the person in the center is pilot Larry Nelson. Here is a link to his oral history - digitalcollections.library.gvsu.edu/document/29279 The Commemorative Air Force also has an oral history of his on file that has not been digitized, but does support his identity in this image.
