Miestni ľudia a občianski hodnostári z celého okresu sa zišli, aby vztýčili špeciálnu vlajku ku Dňu ozbrojených síl na úradoch mestského zastupiteľstva.
Deň ozbrojených síl je príležitosťou ukázať našu podporu mužom a ženám, ktorí tvoria komunitu ozbrojených síl – v súčasnosti slúžia vojakom, služobné rodiny, veterans and cadets and provide a much valued morale boost for our troops and their families.
The United Kingdom Armed Forces defend us and our interests. They are busy working around the world, promoting peace, delivering aid, tackling drug smugglers, providing security and fighting terrorism. Our troops are brave and dedicated men and women taking risks and making sacrifices so we can live safe and comfortable lives.
