14 Squadron was a South African Air Force Squadron during the Second World War. The Squadron was initially deployed to East Africa and was transferred to Egypt in April 1941 when hostilities ceased in East Africa. It had been partially re-equipped with Marylands in early 1941 and was fully converted to these aircraft once in Egypt. On arrival in Egypt, it was renamed 24 Squadron SAAF in order to prevent confusion with RAF No. 14 Squadron.Shores Christopher A History of the Mediterranean Air War: 1940-1945: Vol I: North Africa June 1940 - January 1942 Grub Street London 9781908117076 162 Massimello, Giovanni Guest, Russell
