RAF Wing memorial - Greg Smith, MP for Buckingham Our local MP, Greg Smith, has given his perspective on the importance of the community work underway to finally commemorate those that served at No.26 Operational Training Unit and RAF Wing. He advises: “My congratulations to all of those that are working together to create this special place of remembrance. We must never forget the sacrifice that so many made to protect our freedom. We are forever in their debt and our thanks alone could never be enough. It is therefore uplifting to see this community collaboration take place to permanently commemorate the rich history of the former RAF Wing airfield in Buckinghamshire. This airfield played an important part in the training of operational aircrew from the United Kingdom, and from as far afield as Australia, New Zealand, Canada and many other allied nations. The diverse and energetic young men and women that served here, and the many who made the ultimate sacrifice, have forever gained our respect and gratitude. We will remember them.” House of Commons, London, SW1A 0AA
