As an Old Brit and a great supporter of all our Armed Services and particularly the Royal Air Force I was unaware of the RAF Regiment Heritage Centre at RAF Honington until a few weeks ago and living in the area for most of my life I was really surprised..
At the beginning of November my Son, Cousin and I went through the Security Process and duly arrived at the Station Entrance at the specified time.
Our arrival at the Main Gate was pleasantly and efficiently handled and we were escorted to the Heritage Centre.
Upon entry we were met by the Centre Curator and a number of other great volunteers most of whom had served in the Regiment before retiring. Our welcome was extremely friendly and we were immediately offered an excellent Mug of Tea and some nibbles and briefed on our Tour..
The Centre was extremely well designed, magnificently laid out and contains many exhibits from documents, armoured vehicles and firearms. The Curator gave us a most excellent tour through the history of the Regiment lasting around two hours. Every aspect of time was described and every question was answered, again in a most friendly manner.
We all departed feeling quite humbled like visiting dignitaries thinking how brilliantly the RAF Regiment have served our country. True Unsung Heroes and we would certainly recommend that anyone who is interested in such matters should attend and support this brilliant Heritage Centre.
Thank you all very much again for a Great Visit.
