		No 2620 (County of Norfolk) Squadron Royal Auxiliary Air Force Regiment was first formed as an auxiliary RAF Regiment field squadron at Marham on 1 March 1983 to defend its parent station against ground attack by Warsaw Pact Forces.

		Indeed, during Operation TELIC, Squadron auxiliary RAF Regiment personnel formed the bulk of the first fully auxiliary RAF Regiment field squadron to be deployed on operations since the end of the second world war; operating from Ali Al Salem airbase in Kuwait and Basrah airport in Southern Iraq.
