During its illustrious history, 208 Squadron has been honoured with the presentation of 3 Standards, the first of which was presented on 18 November 1955 by the founding CO of the Squadron: Air Vice-Marshal Sir Geoffrey Bromet KCB CB DSO RAF (Ret’d) at Abu Suier in Egypt. The original Standard was eventually replaced on 1 June 1984 during a parade at RAF Lossiemouth in the presence of Air Marshal Sir Humphrey Edward-Jones KCB CBE DFC AFC BA RAF (Ret’d). It was this second Standard that was replaced during a parade at RAF Valley on 24 November 2011 by the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal Sir Stephen Dalton KCB ADC BSc FRAeS RAF.
