RAF Gatow has the unlikely distinction of having been home during the Berlin Airlift to the only known operational use of flying boats within central Europe, when the RAF used Short Sunderlands to transport salt from Hamburg to Berlin, landing on the Havelsee lake.
Following the end of the war in Europe in 1945, the Squadron spent four years with Transport Command flying Dakotas, first in India and then, after a disbandment between 20 December 1947 and 4 October 1948 (when 238 Squadron was renumbered as No. 10 Squadron), in Europe, taking part in the Berlin Airlift and disbanding on 20 February 1950.
He was then sent to Hamburg to serve in the RAF's 5352 Wing at Hamburg’s Fuhlsbüttel airport, which was involved with the Berlin Airlift.
During the Berlin airlift, 1948–1949, Galligan piloted C-47 aircraft between Wiesbaden Air Base, Germany, and Tempelhof Airport, Berlin.
