The total Dutch purchase of Martin Model-139 was 120 units (in 4 sub-models). Of these 95 are reported operational as of December 8, 1942. You are very correct that my total of the operational units and the pool is incorrect. The difference is the 9 aircraft of 7e Afdeling that are apparently still in the "pool" at this time. I will reduce the pool to 16.

Yes, I do feel the 4-aircraft detachments on Borneo are worth including and I do not feel the 3 aircraft WH-1 Patrouille is worth including.

There are many good points in this discussion but I am not convinced that another bomber squadron named 2-VLG-II should be added. I remain convinced by the statement at http://www.geocities.com/dutcheastindies/Dutch_OOB.html that 2-VLG-II was redesignated 3-VLG-III.
