USAF Croughton
Saturday 12th October 2024
The annual rally on Saturday 12th October marks international “Keep Space for Peace” week 2024. The theme this year is -
“Stop the Use of Space for War and Genocide”
U.S.A.F. Croughton is one of the largest international military intelligence hubs. This major U.S. communication and intelligence base supports many US military sites in Europe and is involved in world-wide war operations.
These include space communications, data links, military drone information, bomber guidance, missile defence, diplomatic communications, and command and control war fighting functions. A connected base is at Barford St John, Banbury, Oxfordshire.
The rally will be to demonstrate against the increasing militarisation of space, which includes the communication networks at USAF Croughton, the US spy base at Menwith Hill, and the planned US space warfare radar base in Pembrokeshire.
The event starts at 12.00 noon at
the main gate, on the B4031, off the A43, 2 miles north of M40 junction 10. A
minibus will travel from Oxford.
