Wootton Bassett: The Town That Remembers

If you live in the UK or have access to the BBC Iplayer from further afield, I emplor you to take an hour of your time to watch this moving infomentory of the deeds done at Royal Wootton Bassett.

I hail from a military background. The honour these people show, out of their own free will fills me with a sense of pride, honour and respect.

These people of giving the lads that fall in service the send off they so richly deserve.

Fascinating programme Sandy. But rather than seeing it as sending them off, it struck me much more as a welcome home and thank you kind of gesture.
