Yes, I know the date maybe wrong, but the 10th is the Sunday, and on that day there will a special service at St Mary in Castro.
The Dover branch of the Royal Artillery Association will be in attendence and will be fireing a 'live' 25lber field gun to mark the two minete silence at 11.00hrs. This will be the last service to be held at the Castle while we still have a Brigadier in the Constables Tower.2 Brigade is leaving Folkestone and the Brigadier is leaving the tower next year.
I will post further details as and when I get them, but please free to join us at the church if you would like too.
I will be in Telford that weekend and will also sadly miss the remembrance concert at Dover Town Hall on the Friday being organised by Hellfire Corner, an event not to be missed, but commitments!! .....
Why do we have to be the only country that does not remember the fallen on the 11/11 each year this is so wrong the young men who went to war for this country deserve better.And we as a country should be ashamed that we don't give them the respect they deserve, many a good man would turn in there grave. I shall be at my usual place on the 11/11 at the Menin Gate in Belgium were many of Dover Towns young men rest.Lest we forget.
