II (Army Cooperation) Squadron Stations since 1912

As befits the longest serving squadron in the Royal Air Force, II(AC) Sqn has since its inception at Farnborough in 1912 ranged far and wide and been located in many places around the world.  Some spots were called "home" for relatively short periods (witness August and September 1914); other bases were settled in for many years.  They are all listed here in chronological order.  Maybe you were part of the squadron at one of the more obscure locations.  If so, it would be grand to hear of your experiences.
