The 1st Airlanding Reconnaissance Squadron, equipped with jeeps, was formed in 1941 under the command of Major CFH Freddie Gough and first saw combat in September 1943 when it landed by sea in Italy with the 1st Airborne Division. It was given a special mission for Operation Market Garden, a coup de main assault to seize and hold the Arnhem Road Bridge until they were relieved. Unfortunately only Major Gough and two jeeps from the HQ Troop reached Arnhem Bridge and were eventually evacuated across the river with the rest of the 1st Airborne Division's survivors.
