Introduction

The Sea Harrier Association was formed in October 2008, after a memorial dinner for a colleague Lt Cdr John Phesse who unfortunately passed away from cancer in 2007.

We are currently one of the youngest Fleet Air Arm Association.

The Association aims are to:

1. Maintain and encourage the growth of the comradeship of the Sea Harrier Community which originated in the service.

2. Maintain a close relationship with the Fleet Air Arm, and the Royal Navy as a whole.

3. Promote and publicise the Association and the Harrier Force in a supportive and positive manner.
