The 240 RAF squadron was re-formed pre WW2 at RAF Calshot on 30 March 1937. It was at initially equipped with Supermarine Scapas, during March 1941 these were replaced with Consolidated Catalinas, to carry out anti-submarine patrols over the Atlantic Ocean.. It then moved to India in March 1942 where it flew anti-shipping and submarine patrols from Red Hills Lake, where it was disbanded on 1 July 1945. The squadron reformed that same day, 1 July 1945, from elements of 212 Squadron and 240 Squadron’s Special Duties Flight. The squadron was continuing “special duties” into September 1945,
