It was the 70th VE Day celebrations over the weekend, and TS Sheffield's Ship's Company were out on parade in the city.
Starting at Barker's Pool cenotaph, our crew made up the only cadet force to join veterans as poppy wreaths were laid and the last post played. As the bugle sounded, the parade & public observed 2 minuts silence.
Afterwards, we were invited to join ex-servicemen for tea & coffee, before having a look at the many displays around Sheffield Cathedral as part of the celebrations, including swing band and WWII vehicle displays.
Thanks to all for attending, your uniform/bearing was excellent - as said by many of the veterans & public.
