| COMMEMORATION
PARADE, CLIFTON BARRACKS, MINDEN, 21st December 1967 |
| The Battle of Ferozeshah was commemorated
each year by the Battalion in Minden. All those who took part will have a
clear memory of the bitter German Winters, and not without a passing
thought that December 21st was not a clever time to hold a battle or a
parade. Nevertheless tradition is tradition !
The following photographs cover some of the parades, and more will
follow in the passage of time. |
