History of 753 NAS

Observer Training Squadron (1939 - 1946)

753 Naval Air Squadron formed at RNAS Lee-on-Solent (HMS Daedalus), situated near Lee-on-the-Solent in Hampshire, approximately four miles west of Portsmouth, on 24 May 1939 as an Observer Training Squadron and being part of No.2 Observer School. It was initially equipped with Blackburn Shark Mk II and Fairey Seal aircraft. In the following December the squadron then acquired Fairey Swordfish I.[1]

In November 1943 Stinson Reliant I was received and was used by the squadron for almost one year, up until September 1944. Lastly, from December 1944, the squadron operated Fairey Barracuda Mk II up until disbandment.[1]

On the 1 November 1945, 753 NAS left Arbroath and moved to RNAS Rattray (HMS Merganser), near Crimond, Aberdeenshire.[2] The squadron remained at the base, operating Fairey Barracuda, until disbanding on the 9 August 1946.[1]
