Veterans Day Parade

Post by M37UK »

Had a great time on Saturday driving a truck load of Vets from the Burma Star Association down Union Street, Aberdeen.
The bed was eventually filled with 6 sitting down and 1 standing behind the cab! hardy old souls.

Glad you had a great time.
Who are the Burma Star Veterans? Vets from WW2 that fought there?
Your truck looks parade ready.

A friend of mine in the Scottish Military Vehicle Group had someone follow us all the way along the route so I am waiting to get photos from him.
