Remembrance 2023

The Association was actively involved in many events for Remembrance

Association members , W.O. K Wynn ,Sqn Leader M Stokes, MBE , Mr Wayne Shelton & Mr Bob McBey MBE , on duty with the Royal British Legion Stafford collecting for the Poppy Appeal

Association member Steve O’Connor sent an invite to join him on a hike to the crash site of a B29 Bomber in the peak district to carry out a small service on Remembrance Sunday.

Events Secretary Wayne Shelton represented the Association alongside W.O. Wynn & Wing Commander Smith from TSW, laying wreaths at the SC & TSW Memorials at the National Memorial Arboretum

Our Association Wreath bearers for the Cenotaph 2023 , Libby MacKinnon and Iona Kelly

The Association had over 70 members on parade at Horse guards

Mr Bob McBey MBE & Association Historian Aaron Handoll , laid wreaths in Stafford on Remembrance Sunday on behalf of the Association

Association member Stuart McGinley carried his Grandfathers World War One Medal with him whilst marching past the Cenotaph.

Association members who attended the Cenotaph , had their names picked at random to enjoy a “Rocket Boat” trip on the Thames after the parade and 12 “lucky” members enjoyed the event paid for by the Association fundraising and sales from merchandise.

We squeezed in a wedding on the Friday , Ray and Fiona Rucroft were married on Friday the 10th at the St Clement Danes ,Royal Air Force Church

And finally we even managed to gather a TV audience , 10 year old Zachary MacArthur watched the parade waiting patiently for the Association to march pass the Cenotaph

Let us know how to get back to you.
