At Second Sight
The
627 Squadron Song - Susan Allen and
William Topper, 1945
Tune – Clementine
Six Two Seven Marker Squadron
Six Two Seven know the name
Six Two Seven, Oslo daylight
Won for them immortal fame
Georgie Curry, in a hurry
To get his story off to base
But he must wait, oh! Yes he must wait
To find who dropped one out of place
Dortmund Ems was marked by Rupert
Dropped his T.I. fair and square
Yes, the photo showed the T.I.
But the target wasn’t there!
Squadron Leader, now Controller,
Left his right and proper place,
Just to mix it with the B.A.S.O.
And to fix “all we at base”
Tripper Topper, just another
Whose job it was to beat the Hun
Did some wizard runs at Wainfleet
But that’s not how Britain won.
Six Two Seven Marker Squadron
Six Two Seven know the name
Six Two Seven, Oslo daylight
Won for them immortal fame
