    Within the ABDA Command air component (ABDAAIR) was the AARG, or Recce Group, or the reconnaissance flying boats of the American Navy (Patrol Wing TEN, Asiatic Fleet), the Dutch Navy (Marineluchvaartdienst / Royal Netherlands Naval Air Service),and British (No. 205 Squadron, RAF). There are some excellent books published on the topic. I have several but if you know of any please advise. Mostly, I'm looking for journals, flight logs, stray operational reports, whatever that reflect the pilots and crews expeirneces, and the command elements between 8 December and 15 March 1942.

    If you have any photos of RAF Catalina from this period... please! Ditto for Dutch Cats and Dornier Do-24s; ditto for USN Catalinas.
