Then we have a quick de rig and it is over to Queens Avenue, Aldershot where we are attending the Gurkha Cup on Sunday 29th. This is a massive event with all sorts of attractions and a football competition. The colour and atmosphere is truly amazing. The Day (and the football) kicks off at 10am and runs through to 5pm and includes a Free Fall Parachute display by “The Silver Stars” It is the display team of the Royal Logistic Corp, and was formed from the teams of the old RAOC team ( The Cannon Balls at least that’s what we called them) and The Silver Stars of the Royal Corp of Transport. The Silver Stars are the oldest British Military parachute display team and has a great heritage. This year is the 15 anniversary and promises to be the biggest and grandest yet.
