Best Answer

it means something like 'before the light'

I can only use the RAF (Royal Air Force) version for 38 Squadron, their motto was 'Ante Lucem' which translated as 'Before the Dawn' as most of their missions were flown at this time. I Only know this as my father served with them 1943-46.

Ad lucem means "to the light" or "to enlightenment". This is typically used in the phrase, "Per Crucem ad Lucem", which literally says "Through the Cross to Enlightenment." The cross here meaning suffering, and not necessarily faith.
