darkblueworld > BATTLE OF BRITAIN COMMEMORATION - Basrah Air Station 15th Sep 04 On Wednesday 15 September 2004, Basrah Air Station became the dramatic setting for a unique and poignant parade and service to commemorate the Battle of Britain. The guard of honour consisting of 20 personnel drawn from all sections within Basrah Air Station was commanded by Flight Lieutenant Mike Brown with Guest of Honour Major General Rollo, Commander of the Multinational Division (South East). With the additional musical support of the Band of the Royal Air Force Regiment from RAF Cranwell, under their Director of Music Flight Lieutenant Chris Weldon, the parade was also able to include the traditional music and pageantry of a sunset ceremony, complete with fly past from a locally based C130 Hercules aircraft. As the Band of the RAF Regiment depart back to the UK to continue a busy schedule of concerts and ceremonies, their brief visit for personnel on operational duties in Iraq certainly provided an opportunity for a very moving experience for all to commemorate those colleagues of a previous generation from the Battle of Britain.
