RAF Mildenhall & Lakenheath

Post by gurkha1 » Sun May 08, 2016 3:19 pm

Have heard Donald Trump may keep Mildenhall and Lakenheath if he is elected as POTUS, He is also going to ask the countries where US bases are to pay the US government as they are there to help keep peace,lets hope Mr.Cameron is feeling generous as they are vital to our countries economy, money well spent me thinks !!

The town - yes; the USAF base - no.

The decision has been made. It is not changing - daily, weekly nor monthly.

There is no need for another thread speculating about the closure of RAF Mildenhall. There is already a discussion well underway here: viewtopic.php?f=287&t=108625
