617 Squadron "After me, the flood"

​

Known as the Dambusters, 617 Sqdn, probably one of the most famous  squadrons of World War II, lends its name and badge to the current Lockheed Martine F-35b Lightning II stationed at RAF Marhem.  The B Variant known as STOVL for Short Take Off Vertical Landing, is the current choice of the Royal Air Force.

 

Images also include a flight of Royal Navy Merlin Helicopters, who popped in for a refuel of aircraft and crew no doubt.
