Hi I wonder if someone might be able to clarify this says Q.O Operations, and where I might find out what it means

Thank you

A bit more context might help. :)

ie Date or Time Period?
ETO? PTO? CBI?
RAF? RCAF? RAAF? USAAF?
Is it referencing fighter operations? bomber operations?

Sorry its dated November 1941 64 Squadron RAF Hornchurch -
 
Hi,
Don't see any QO operations for the 64Sq in Nov41 (AIR-27/590/22), but in December well (AIR 27/590/24).

The same question was asked on RAFCOMMANDS forum long time ago, the answer was:

"Doing QDMs" was something you might do for air navigation practice."

But we still do not have the full name of this Q.O's :p

From 211squadron.org

The abbreviation
Q.O. in an RAF log book likely stands for Quarterly ,once a Quarter, or each Quarter
This abbreviation would not typically describe a specific type of operation itself but rather indicate a recurring administrative or procedural event, inspection, or training exercise that took place on a quarterly basis.
