Since the British forces were due to leave Malta by 1979 it was decided that the main body of 41 Commando Group would leave during 1977 and this they did on 18 April. The 41 Commando Group Company left behind, ‘Salerno’ Company, which relocated to RAF Luqa and continued its role of providing security and protecting British interests until 1979.
