Having taken into account the current COVID restrictions that currently apply in the different parts of the UK, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 reunion.
The Chairman Nick Butler will be heading up the Fan at 0930 hrs on Saturday the 15th May and he will lay a BAFC wreath on behalf of the Club at the summit.
He will also toast The Fallen.
If other members wish to make their own pilgrimage up the Fan at their own risk please follow the relevant COVID restrictions that will be in place.
As a Club we are not able to accept liability for members safety and well being over the weekend of 14/15 May. Our Clubs insurance that normally covers Fandance will not operate this year.
Update to follow reference Aldershot 10 Miler on the 20th November 2021.
...........................................................................................................................................................The 10 Miler will be held on w/e Saturday 23rd November 2024..................................................................................................................................
PRA Standard and bearer attended, honour guard made up of old and bold plus a 3 Para current WO. Bugler played last post. Geoff got the send off he rightly deserved. His family said Geoff would have been pleased to see so many Regiment guys there.
Summary from the eulogy:
Geoff added two years to his real birth date to sign up early and after training was part of the Normandy landings as a replacement, fought in the Battle of the Bulge (Belgium), dropped as part of Operation Varsity (The Rhine Crossing), then various places in the East ending up serving in Palestine when he eventually was de-mobbed in 1947.
