Today was armed forces day and last post was played by Alison Rich.

Our MP, Mayor, Deputy Mayor, Deputy Lord Lieutenant, and Chair of the Vale were there as part of the ceremony. (Thanks to David for the first picture. )

The Colonel and troops from Dalton Barracks raised the Armed Forces Flag.

Various other towns celebrated Armed Forces Day in a bigger way today, but Abingdon’s chance comes next Saturday with Armed Forces Open Day at Dalton Barracks.
