Falklands Veterans Freedom March

[ratso]

The Borough of Gosport has granted the Freedom of the Borough to all Falklands Veterans. This is a great honour for any group to be awarded.
It has been possible due to the hard work by the Falklands Veterans Foundation and the fact that we have based our offices in the town, also due to the hard work by the Chief Executive Derek (Smokey) Cole in organising the 15th and 20th reunions in Gosport.

DIARY DATE: WEDNESDAY 24th AUGUST 2005

‘FALKLANDS VETERANS TO RECEIVE FREEDOM OF THE BOROUGH’

The Gosport Council were unanimous in their decision to grant the Freedom of the Borough to all Falklands Veterans.
This great honour can only be granted to an organisation which has ties to the city, in this case through the fact that, the only Charity to be recognised as working for All Falklands Veterans and their Families, the Falklands Veterans Foundation (FVF), has set up their base in the Borough, and the great work by the charities Chief Executive Derek (Smokey) Cole, who was responsible for organising the 15th and 20th anniversary events in Gosport.

The event for all Falklands Veterans will be co-ordinated by the FVF.

If you are a Veteran and wish to attend then go to www.fvf.org.uk and print off the form and post it back or e-mail me at info@fvf.org.uk
