Leuchars was home to an RAF base for almost 100 years starting in 1916 and ending in 2015. It now hosts an army base.
The RAF had a close association with St Athernase Church. The refurbishment going on (see previous post on St Athernase) meant the memorials had been temporarily removed from the walls.
