As best I can tell it says:
"Catalina Wreck - This Royal Air Force Catalina flying boat was one of two from the detachment **** *** flying boat base of 205 and 240 squadrons RAF. Stationed at Diego Garcia during the Second World War, it was wrecked on 15 September 1944 when a cyclone struck the island."
