The Editor’s Blog
Looking back
on a very busy
but highly
positive month
in the SBT, I
take stock of
the journey we
have taken over the past three
years. Yes, We originally started in
February 2016 with the Sandbag
Times Blog read by around 50
people every month. Now, we stand
as the premier veterans magazine
with over 250,000 readers every
month, you guys! It’s very
humbling.
We had the honour of attending the
launch of the Welsh Veterans
Awards over the last week in Cardiff
where, yours truly, was asked to give
a small presentation as sponsors
along with Team Dynamics
Motorsport, our patron’s racing
team. The awards are the main
focus of this issue, and so they
should be. The emphasis will be on
getting the SBT audience to vote for
the veterans they think have gone
above and beyond in respective
award categories. All I will say, is
take a look and get voting.
Jim has also been in front of the
papers, TV cameras and the
Defence Minister speaking on the
suicide issue. Make sure you read
his blog this month.
ns 20 OFF THE Finally, it’s great to have SBT Radio
back up and running during the
GRID week but we need presenters. If you
fancy a spot, get in touch with us for
further details. Stay safe all, Pabs.
