Background, Aims and Objectives, and Links

Background

Since the late 1980s the RAF Servicing Commando Association has been proud to be associated with their modern day successors – Tactical Supply Wing (TSW). Over the years the Wing, still based at MoD Stafford (formerly RAF Stafford), has become the spiritual home of the Servicing Commandos who have been pleased to see and enjoy the camaraderie of today’s Royal Air Force.

In 2006 TSW celebrated its 35th Anniversary; it was clear from the very successful Open Day and Anniversary Weekend, that the time was right to (at last!) form a Wing Association. Co-incidentally, the Servicing Commando Association felt that they wished to hand over their “baton” to the Wing as the inevitability of time began to manifest itself. From these joint interests and common values a new Association has been formed. Details of the Committee are shown here.

This web site provides details of the Association and other essential links including those to its forebears.
