207 Squadron
Royal Air Force Association |
The Squadron Badge |
| This is one of
the few RAF Squadron Badges that were approved
and signed by Edward VIII. It is
dated May 1936. The Latin motto may be translated
as Always Prepared. The Tudor Crown shown
here was used before the Accession of HM The
Queen, after which it was changed to the Edward Crown. |
| The Squadron
Standard, presented by HM The
Queen in 1956, was the first to be
presented by the Reigning Sovereign in person.
That was laid up in Leicester Cathedral on the
disbandment of the Squadron in 1984. |
| A new and revised
standard was created for 207 (Reserve)
Squadron, which can be seen on their
website (see link on left). It was presented to
the Squadron at Linton-on-Ouse by HRH Prince
Andrew on 25th November 2003 - see What's New.
