As in the half red, half black sun with the yellow flash through it. It was told to me once that it's to represent the cowardice shown by the Aircrew in WW1 on retreat from Italy. Not only abandoning the ground crew but strafing the Airfield with their munitions to help prevent equipment and manpower falling into the enemies clutches.
Apparently the Red colour is for the blood spilt, the black to represent a dark day in the Squadrons history and the flash of yellow for the cowardice shown.
It also meant that the Squadron was barred from the UK till the 80's?
I ask the more enlightened of our Goaters, is this correct?
