RAF ABBREVIATION

Hello,

I have a reference to a Pilot Officer (Pilot) being posted to ‘B.A.U. Africa’ with effect 23-12-42. Someone suggested that the abbreviation stood for ‘Bombing Analysis Unit’, but I am not so sure. Can anyone shed any light on this RAF/Military Unit for me please?

Thanks in advance

Jon

Interestingly it looks as if papers from the Bombing Analysis Unit are on file, and presumably available for examination, at the University of East Anglia.
