VELOX AND VINDEX
(which translates as)
SWIFT AND AVENGING  
We perhaps can say that the Squadron really lived up to its motto in the last phase of the Burma Campaign when it played a vital role in chasing the Japanese out of Burma in just seven months, starting from YAZAGYO in mid-January 1945 to MEIKTILA in Mid-August 1945 when the Japanese surrendered. Swift, indeed, and avenging the retreat of 1942 when the Japanese occupied Burma.
