Association for Joint Air Delivery Test and Evaluation Unit

Some Associations have been in existence for many years and are extremely active. Early in 1999 a Joint Air Transport Establishment (JATE) /Joint Air Transport Evaluation Unit (JATEU) /Joint Air Delivery Test and Evaluation Unit (JADTEU) committee was formed with the aim of determining the level of support amongst serving members for a JATE/JATEU/JADTEU Association and the initial response was overwhelming.

The majority of serving members joined and the search is on to find former members and invite them to enrol as members of the JATE/JATEU/JADTEU Association.

As part of their campaign to attract former members of JATE and JATEU to the Association, the JATE/JATEU/JADTEU Association Committee (JAC) placed advertisements in various military newspapers such as the Focus and Soldier. We also hope that those who are in contact with former JATE/JATEU/JADTEU members will contact them and spread the word.

We do not believe it will be necessary to levy an annual fee, however, there is a membership fee of £5 to cover the incidental expenses.

If you are a former member of JATE, JATEU or JADTEU and any of its ancestors we do hope that you will decide to join the JATE/JATEU/JADTEU Association as we are confident that you will enjoy the friendship and camaraderie that will be rekindled at our biennial reunions. A membership form can be obtained by contacting the Membership Secretary.

Meanwhile, if you should have any questions regarding Association Membership, please do not hesitate to contact the JAC Secretary,  +44(0)1993 896282 or the Membership Secretary on +44(0)1993 897843
