RAF Rochford/Southend Airport.
During August 1939 the Air ministry requisitioned all such commercial airfields. The airfield was to become known as RAF Rochford and placed in No 11 Group of Fighter Command as a satellite field to RAF Hornchurch. The first squadron to arrive was No 54 squadron with its Spitfires followed by No 600 City of London squadron with their Blenheim 1F's. Another squadron who was to frequently use RAF Rochford was No 74 squadron who left on 27th May.

Once well rested No 74 returned to Rochford and 616 squadron returned to Rochford and 616 squadron returned up north to their home at Leconfield in Yorkshire. During the Battle of Britain and particular August and September 1940 various squadrons from both Hornchurch and North Weald used Rochford as an advance base. The first Hurricanes appeared at Rochford in August when No 56 Squadron used the airfield.

The Spitfires of No 41 squadron were the most frequent visitors to Rochford during most of September. On October 26th 1940 Rochford became a station in its own right and was known as RAF Southend, although the fighter control remained with Hornchurch. The squadron based at Rochford at the time was No 264 which was equipped with Boulton Paul Diefiants. This two seat fighter had only come into service in December 1939. As fighter command moved forward to a more offensive role in early 1941, Southend became the forward base for a number of Spitfire squadrons.
