bulletHabbaniya Memorial at the RAF Association Club, Preston 26 Apr 1958
The first Habbaniya Reunion was held in Lancaster in 1955. It had taken until then to make contact with many who had served with the KORR and RAF. This reunion was a great success, many officers attending, including our own Commanding Officer, Colonel E N Everett-Heath, and the 1st Battalion sent a detachment in which some of our Habbaniya chaps were still serving. But I think the greatest show of all was the unveiling at the Royal Air Force Club, Preston, of the Habbaniya War memorial containing the names of the King’s Own Royal Regiment and Royal Air Force chaps who died during the siege. It was unveiled on 23 Apr 1958 by the then Under Secretary for War, Mr Julian Amery, MP, and dedicated by Chaplain in Chief, RAF, The Rev F H Trevor (who was Padre at Habbaniya). All known relatives of the deceased were invited, fares paid, over night accommodation provided free, and transported to Lancaster where they were our guest at the dinner that followed. All the monies for the Memorial, fares, accommodation and dinner were paid for by voluntary subscription from our members. What an achievement. What a day.
Owing to the reconstruction of the RAF Club at Preston, the Memorial was moved to RAF Club at Ulverston, the Heart of King’s Own Country, and rededicated in 1967.
The memorial was later moved to Lancaster, and with permission refused for it to be added to the Regimental Chapel it was located at Phoenix Street and later outside the Commanding Officer’s Officer at Alexandra Barracks, on Caton Road, Lancaster. It has since been relocated within the Barracks.
