RAF Drops 'Crusaders' Nickname for 14 Squadron After Complaint: Daily Mail Online
Jul 28, 2024, 06:00 PM
The Royal Air Force (RAF) has decided to drop the 'Crusaders' nickname for its 14 Squadron following a complaint that the moniker is insulting and offensive to Muslims. The complaint was upheld, leading to the change, as reported by Daily Mail Online. The squadron's motto, 'I spread my wings and keep my promise,' is derived from the Koran and appears in Arabic on its crest. A review of historic terminology within the RAF is ongoing, and further changes may be implemented.
