Project Description
The Wiltshire Armed Forces and Veterans Weekend is an annual event held in the Wiltshire County town of Trowbridge. This year, for the first time, the Wiltshire Branch were involved and, over the weekend of 27/28 June David Budd, Brian Flinn, Ken Ivie, Gordon Sidey, Andy Davies manned a stall representing the Association. They were visited by Air Vice Marshal Martin Clark, Director (Technical), Military Aviation Authority at Abbey Wood and FS Jason Trevorrow MoD Corsham. Other Branch members visited over the weekend and took part in a parade through the town.
I had a full career in the Provost branch joining the RAF in April 1961,eventually taking a branch commission and finishing my time as Flt.Lt. my last tour was as DAPO based at RAF Rudloe Manor. Now at the age of 83, living in Spain, I am endeavouring to obtain a RAF beret and an officers beret badge for Remembrance Day service. Can you please advise me as to where I can obtain these items. Your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely Paul Wright
