🇬🇧 Lincolnshire County Poppy Launch
A fantastic event hosted by the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre. Bringing together veterans, cadets, families and communities to celebrate the launch of the Poppy Appeal.
The event included a Royal British Legion service, a gathering of standards and cadets, and a spectacular finale as 50,000 biodegradable paper poppies were released from beneath the wings of the iconic Just Jane Avro Lancaster bomber.
An especially proud moment for 3 Company, whose cadets proudly represented us as standard bearers throughout the event.
The photographs capture a cadet from each of our six detachments: Holbeach, Kirton, Spalding, Boston, Skegness and Long Sutton.
Well done to all our cadets. You represented 3 Company with pride and distinction. We couldn’t be prouder! 👏🇬🇧
