Armed Forces Day flag flies
The Armed Forces Day flag has been raised in Bromsgrove to show support for armed forces communities in the district and nationwide.
Bromsgrove District Council Chairman Cllr Sam Evans was joined by members of the Bromsgrove Royal British Legion and community groups as he raised the flag, in a ceremony by the War Memorial on Crown Green in Bromsgrove yesterday (June 23).
Cllr Evans said: “With this flag we officially mark the week leading up to Armed Forces Day and, as a community, once again show our appreciation to all our servicemen and women, past, present and future.”
The flag will fly all week ahead of Armed Forces Day itself, which this year falls on Saturday June 28.
Town Crier Kevin Ward and Rev Ray Khan of St John’s Church, who conducted the service, joined Cllr Evans, the Legion, and others as the flag was raised.
