2025 REUNION
Your committee are pleased to announce that next year's reunion weekend will be held at Bury St Edmunds Golf Club once again. It will start on Friday 23rd May with a buffet at the Golf Club followed by the AGM. On Saturday 24th May there will an organised trip out to Bressingham steam museum, railway and gardens by coach in the morning. The reunion dinner will take place on Saturday evening at the Golf Club. On Sunday 25th May there will be a service of remembrance, as usual, at St John's Church, Beck Row, Mildenhall. Full details of the weekend will be in the Newsletter that will be sent out in the New Year.
The reunion is dependant on there being enough attendees to make the minimum number required by the Golf Club.
Also, with the whole committee, except Madam Chair resigning, this may well be the last reunion unless we get some enthusiastic takers for the positions.
Here's hoping you have a super Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

Membership
This web site is dedicated to all who served with XV, 75, XC, 149, 218 & 622 Bomber Squadrons and their support personnel at RAF Mildenhall and RAF Lakenheath during WWII. The aim of the website is to provide a source of information, memories and stories for anyone with an interest in the squadrons and the personnel who served as Ground or Air crew at Mildenhall and Lakenheath.
On its initial formation, in around 1979, the Mildenhall Register’s objective was to bring
together people who share a common bond with the squadrons that operated out of RAF Mildenhall and RAF Lakenheath during the Second World War, and all their support staff. Here we will try to cover
all aspects of the squadrons’ histories, groundcrew memories and individual aircraft and crew stories.
Today we appeal to a wider audience, with the intention of perpetuating and preserving the memory of all those who contributed to the ultimate victory. WW2 'Erk, Air Traffic Controller, NAAFI lady; whether you are relatives of Squadron members, researching family members, remembering old friends or would like to know more of what it meant to be in the RAF at this time, you are most welcome to join. Membership is Free.
