The Mess, Dalton Barracks   The Mess, Dalton Barracks

Dalton Barracks is the base of three regiments of the Royal Logistic Corps.

It was originally a Royal Air Force base, opened in 1932 and known as RAF Abingdon. The station was closed in December 1992. It was taken over by the Army and renamed Dalton Barracks in honour of James Langley Dalton (a member of the Army Commissary Corps who was awarded the Victoria Cross for his gallantry at Rorke’s Drift, Zululand, 1879).
