Located about 10 miles from Changi, it played a major role in the Malayan Emergency, and served as Maintenance Base for the RAF Far East Air Force (FEAF). 34 Squadron was reformed at RAF Seletar in 1960 with a fleet of Blackburn Beverley transporters. It was deeply involved in the Thai / Laos border crisis transporting a complete Hunter Squadron to Chieng Mai (1962), the suppression of the Brunei Revolt transporting troops and supplies "round the clock", the Indonesian-Malaysian Confrontation supplying remote jungle outposts, the Borneo Operation, and assisting Red Cross relief operations in South Vietnam. In 1967 Britain announced it would be withdrawing its forces from the region. 32 Squadron was disbanded in 1968. Most of the other forces were out by 1971 when RAF Seletar was handed over to Singapore, with the British retaining a token presence to 1976. This ceremonial Programme contains a Foreword by Seletar's Station Commander Group Captain T.W.A. Hutton, a history of 32 Squadron, the Parade State Order of Ceremony with Reviewing Officer FEAF Air Commander Air Marshal Sir Rochford Hughes, a biography of Hughes, and the Squadron Standard with notice of its Laying Up at the RAF Church in St Clement Danes, London. Among the advertisers are Tiger Beer, Mansfield Travel in KL, the China Trading Company, Shell, and Hawker Siddeley.
