Historical
On August 26, 1939, the School
of application of Berre was transformed into 3S-4 Exploration Squadron.
And it's the Lieutenant GUILLEMIN, boss of the School of Application
who becomes the commander of the new unit. The unit is responsible
for carrying out surveillance missions near Marseilles.
His equipment is at best
heterogeneous and varied ... This will inevitably cause maintenance
problems.
After the declaration of
war of Italy, the activity of the Escadrille intensifies and the
two Lioré & Olivier of the unit will execute successfully,
a mission of bombing on the Italian coast.
The squadron is dissolved
at the Armistice
