SAC Jonny Anderson was unable to be present at the Association AGM in June as he was on route back from his deployment to Afghanistan. The presentation thus took place at JCB’s Worldwide Headquarters at Rocester in September. The Director of the Defence and Government Division, Michael Leeming, hosted a tour around the new 21st Century Visitor Centre followed by lunch. Presentations were made by the CEO, Mr Alan Blake, and former Association Chairman, Gp Capt Duncan Grant. The citation can be seen here.
