Thanks for your efforts, Peppermint.

I have no particular interests – it was just an interesting gallery to dip into from time to time. There were badges from some pretty obscure units on there, many of which I did not think ever had a badge authorised.

Oh well……

The Answer

After contacting the CRO at RAF Marham I have managed to get an answer to your question. The galleries in question were removed deliberately from Marham’s website because people were using them without permission. Looking on the internal website, the front page states the following;

“The images of RAF Badges displayed on this website are all Crown Copyrighted – with strict MoD Trademark restrictions on their private and commercial use, they may be used freely within the confines of the MoD.

This is a gallery of Squadron, Station, Section and Unit badges available for personal viewing only, to anyone interested in RAF badges, logos and crests. They are not to be downloaded for any private purpose or used for commercial gain without permission being granted by the Ministry of Defence.”

With that in mind it would seem unlikely that they are going to be restored.

Unfortunately the person that manages the external website is not at work at the moment and may not be for some time. As I stated in a previous post, if there is one in particular you are looking for please feel free to PM me and I’ll have a look on the internal website for you.

I will email the station webmaster and let you know his response.

I have therefore dropped an e-mail to the Station Historian to see if the gallery can be restored.

I do hope they can.

They are still on Marham’s internal website

Pepper,

Looking closely at the Station website again, Marham seems to have dispensed with the services of its resident Webmaster.

I have therefore dropped an e-mail to the Station Historian to see if the gallery can be restored.

Now, you’re going to tell me Marham no longer has a Station Historian, aren’t you…. ???

They are still on Marham’s internal website, but they appear to have updated the external website and removed them in the process. If there’s a particular one you are looking for PM me and I’ll forward it to you.
