118 REGIMENTAL JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL LANCERS (QUEEN ELIZABETHS’ OWN)
Greetham MM, from the 27L. Len who is now 98 years of age was very much the guest of honour this year. We followed the success of last year’s format with all the work that Mr Dick Boor- man had put into it which pulled all the lancers and their me- morials together. After the wreath laying, we all adjourned to the pub across the road for some lunch. It is our intention in 2019 to move this event to Saturday 16th November so it coincides with the South Eastern Branch’s annual dinner in the evening. It is hoped that by holding the event of the same weekend it will combine both the gathering of lancers.
Another good turnout at NMA Colonel of the Regiment at Westminster Abbey
