100 years of RAF Odiham

Motion text

That this House acknowledges the immense contribution that the RAF and air bases across the UK make to our national security; recognises the critical support they have given throughout numerous conflicts and the invaluable assistance they give to all branches of the military; congratulates RAF Odiham for 100 years of service to our country and the local community; notes that since its founding in 1925, the base has become a cornerstone of British aviation and provides crucial logistical support to the Air Force as the centre for RAF Chinook operations which are vital in supporting British forces overseas and responding to domestic emergencies; and thanks RAF staff past and present for their services to the armed forces and the sacrifices they, and their families, have made to do so.
