| Calendar: |
The Group is very active and
regularly attends a number of events from military shows
to living history displays. We have worked with the Ministry
of Defence, English Heritage, Aldershot Military Museum,
Firepower Museum, National Army Museum, Royal Armouries,
and the Royal Artillery.
We have also been involved in TV and film productions,
for example, Atonement, 10 Days to D Day by 3BM Productions
and Battlefield Detectives with Granada TV.
Our calendar is given below - the events shown in red
are those that the Ack Ack section have booked to attend.
Pictures from past events are included in our Gallery. |
