FOREWORD

If you are a unit commander do send stories in, the Editor knows how much is going on out there in each

you have enjoyed it.
Many of the activities mentioned
above have also featured on the RFCA website at https://www.rfca-york- shire.org.uk in addition to their own media channels. Do take a look at the RFCA website too.
Please continue to send, high quality stories and pictures in for
the magazine, which makes for excellent reading material, not just around Yorkshire and the Humber, but nationally. A plea though, do look closely at the quality of the pictures being sent with stories; many have been rejected as they were of poor quality or content and would detract from what would otherwise be good contributions. Keep sending your stories and do please note the copy dates below and the guidance notes on submission of articles.
