Armed Forces Day is due to make a much-anticipated return to our town after a Covid-19 enforced hiatus of two years.
The event which takes place in towns and cities across the country celebrates the service of men and women in all three branches of the armed forces.
Taking place on June 18 in Waterloo Square Bognor’s event will feature demonstrations by serving members of the armed forces veterans and a variety of town youth groups.
“The big thing for us this year is the cadet groups. Bognor Regis has got three excellent cadet groups: the sea cadets the air cadets and the army cadets” said David Hewings an Armed Forces Day organiser and member of RAF Association branch 381.
“This will be very much about the youth organisation event as well. It’s just as much about looking forward to future generations of servicemen and women as it is looking back and paying tribute to those who have already served.”
That means there’s a jam-packed schedule for members of the public to look forward to when June 18 finally rolls around.
“We’ve got a good entertainment programme ready to go” Mr Hewings said"
