  From the Chairman of the RAF Regiment Association
Peter Drissell, National Chairman of the RAF Regiment Association

Peter Drissell, National Chairman RAF Regiment AssociationThe RAF Regiment Association offers a warm welcome to all members of the RAF Regiment, whether still serving or long-since retired.

As you will see from this website, the RAF Regiment Association has a number of Branches where members can meet and socialise with friends, old and new, to share and extend the fellowship of service. If you cannot, or prefer not to, join a Branch, you can hold individual membership of the RAF Regiment Association by joining the HQ Roll. Either way, you will be made very welcome.

We were all members of a unique and respected fighting force and it is right that we should continue to share in the pride of our service as Rock Apes.

  MEMORIAL STONES FACILITY IN RAF REGIMENT MEMORIAL GARDEN

The RAF Regt Memorial Garden's new block paving in late-2009 enabled the establishment of individual and personalized Memorial Stones in the pathway. The Memorial Stones, manufactured in honed light grey granite and available in several distinct styles, may be ordered by anyone who may wish to commemorate a Corps individual, unit or event. A bespoke order form is now available in hard-copy and electronic formats from the Regtl Sec and is downloadable here
