The 2013 Association Annual General Meeting and Reunion Dinner was held at Stafford on 31st May and 1st June with the now customary ‘meet and greet’ at the Tillington Hall Hotel on the Friday evening followed by the AGM on the Saturday morning, the TSW Families Day in the afternoon and the Reunion dinner, again held in the Sergeants’ Mess, on the Saturday evening.
As we have come to expect, the weekend went extremely well and was very well attended with quite a few new old faces at the AGM and dinner. The Wing Families Day was undoubtedly helped by the good weather – bright sunshine, though a little chilly in the wind – and the unending enthusiasm of the Wing.

The Families’ Day
All the usual entertainments were available at the Families Day: Chinook rides for families, bouncy castles, the Wing’s presentation stand, the dunker (which the Wg WO and Association Member, Mark Farrell particularly enjoyed!), vehicle displays and Sqn Ldr Dom Magenty (OC TFS and Association member) who sang his heart out! The Association enclosure did good business with free drinks on offer while Alan McQuillin and David Orr christened the RAF Servicing Commando bench destined for the NMA at Alrewas. Despite the blustery winds the RAF Falcons Parachute Display Team dropped in with a spellbinding display.
