Summary

Description
English: The Guard of Honour salutes King George V on his arrival at Mildenhall on 6 July 1935 for the Silver Jubilee Review of the Royal Air Force. This was the first such Royal Review for the Service.

As part of the King George V's Silver Jubilee July 6th 1935, the RAF chose RAF Station Mildenhall as one of two venues to host a royal review of the RAF. Thirty-eight squadrons with 370 aircraft lined up for this royal review by the king. This collection of aircraft included bombers, fighters, and observation aircraft.

The number of aircraft constituted one third of the RAF's total strength at that time. The Prince of Wales and the Duke of York accompanied the king during his review.
