P. 169
On 14 September 2019 Association members gathered at the National Memorial Arboretum for the RATC Association biennial Service of Commemoration (SoC). The SoC has become a permanent fixture in the Association calendar and attendance is growing year on year with just over 200 members gathering around the RAPTC memorial for a service conducted by the
Corps Chaplain. The service was followed with a sit down 2 course lunch, the presentation of the Association awards and an address from our Colonel Commandant, General JI Bashall CB CBE. The format for the day was deemed a great success and the format for the day will be retained for the next SoC in 2021.
