Not quite, here are some reports you've missed: Donaldson 151Sqdn-18May40.pdf

Dutton 145 Sqn 1July40.pdf

There were several other colloquial expressions used to describe using +12 lbs boost, all with the same meaning, regardless of what Crumpp might think. And wouldn't ya know it, these squadrons are not on pstyle's list...
