About the Badge
The Royal Air Force Regiment was established in 1942 during the Second World War to provide the RAF with its own dedicated ground-defence force.
Its distinctive badge incorporates several elements closely associated with the Regiment:
The Crossed Rifles — Represent the Regiment's ground-combat role and its responsibility for defending RAF personnel, airfields and operational assets.
The Astral Crown — Positioned at the centre of the crossed rifles, the Astral Crown is a distinctive heraldic emblem associated with military aviation and the Royal Air Force.
The Queen's Crown — St Edward's Crown surmounts the badge on this version, representing the pattern associated with the reign of Queen Elizabeth II.
The RAF Blue Circlet — Carries the title ROYAL AIR FORCE REGIMENT, clearly identifying the specialist corps within the wider Royal Air Force.
The Wreath — The gold wreath surrounds the central badge and forms part of the distinctive RAF Regiment design.
The Motto — PER ARDUA — Displayed prominently on the scroll beneath the badge. The Regiment's motto translates as "Through Adversity."
The RAF Regiment motto should not be confused with the motto of the wider Royal Air Force, Per Ardua ad Astra — "Through Adversity to the Stars."
From its Second World War origins, the RAF Regiment has continued to provide ground combat and force-protection capability for RAF operations around the world, including service in the Falklands, Balkans, Sierra Leone, Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan.
