History

Underpinning our values
Warrant Office Steve Dutton describes himself as a proud caretaker. His Mess at RAAF Base Williams is home to many items of historic and heritage significance to Air Force, which were retrieved from the Point Cook Sergeants’ Mess after it was closed in 1998.

From Saskatchewan to Port Phillip Bay
HIGH in the pecking order of trophies held by the RAAF Base Williams Sergeants’ Mess is the mounted head of a wapiti.

Propelled into our aviation history
The propeller that hangs in the RAAF Base Williams Sergeants’ Mess dining room was originally fitted to the Vickers Vimy aeroplane that made the first flight from England to Australia in November 1919.
