U.S. Air Force Col. Adam Moore, left, 352nd Special Operations Wing; Royal Air Force Air Commodore Claire O’Grady, second left, Deputy Air Officer Commanding No. 2 Group; Robert Rous, second right, Vice Lord-Lieutenant of Suffolk; and U.S. Air Force Col. Ryan Garlow, 100th Air Refueling Wing commander, use a sabre to cut a cake celebrating RAF Mildenhall’s 90th anniversary of being an RAF station during a special event Oct. 9, 2024. The celebration also included the unveiling of a new station crest – the Tudor Crown – at an event for Vice Lord-Lieutenants, Deputy Lieutenants, High Sheriffs, RAF representatives and other invited guests from the local community. The Tudor Crown, used by HRH King Charles III, replaced the St. Edward’s Crown formerly used by HRH Queen Elizabeth II and will be placed on the tails of all 100th ARW KC-135 Stratotankers.
