Lascaris Malta Association
Welcome to the Lascaris Malta Association which was founded in 1989. Originally known as Lascaris (Malta) Communicators Association, it was formed to re-unite Communicators who orked at the Commander in Chief Mediterranean Fleet's Communications centre in Lascaris uildings. It became obvious that no exclusively Naval Association Existed for former Naval personnel who had served in Malta. In recognising this need the Association was broadened to incorporate ALL branches based ashore in Malta including Fleet Air Arm personnel based at H.M.S. Falcon/R.N.A.S. Hal Far.
