It was fighting after it was disbanded?? edit

This paragraph has it disbanded on 20 January but attacking troopships on 26 January. Which is correct?

Six 62 Squadron Hudsons took part in attacks against Japanese troopships landing at Endau, Malaya on 26 January, two being shot down by Japanese Ki-27 fighters.[15] The squadron was evacuated from P2 to Java when Japanese paratroops landed at Palembang.[16] The squadron operated closely with those of No. 1 Squadron RAAF,[1][17] before being disbanded on 20 January 1942, its remaining Hudsons being transferred to 1 Squadron RAAF NealeFamily (talk) 03:01, 5 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
