displays. The massed bands include the Band of the Brigade of
Gurkhas, the Pipes and Drums of the Argyll & Sutherlands and

full scale assault, which will provide an exciting and explosive(!)
insight into how the Army would attack an enemy base is also being
planned.
On Saturday there will be an exciting Family Fun

life is like in the military today and travelling back in time to
the Roman and Napoleonic eras with exciting re-enactments and
themed events, interactive and static displays. Memorabilia and
