It's not Bj Martragny, it's B7 Martragny (ALG).
Martragny is a french town in Normandy.

These underwing B&W strips aren't the D-Day markings. But a very nice shot here.

The ID stripes for Hawker Typhoon used from October 1942 to 7th February 1944 ... 4 black 12" strips + 3 white 24" ones.




And the D-Day marking used in the June 1944 ... 3 white 18" + 2 black 18" bands
