The Royal Irish Rangers 40th Anniversary Parade ( Catterick )
Ladies & Gentlemen
I visited the Yorkshire Branch on Saturday to add input to the details
of the parade.
I am pleased now to announce that the details have been finalised.
The parade will take place on Saturday the 5th July 2008 at Gaza
Barracks, Catterick and Richmond Town. The days details are as
follows:-
Wives and partners are encouraged and welcome.
All personnel in the parade need to be there by 10am on the morning of
the 5th at the latest, Coffee/Tea and biscuits are provided before the
parade.
Form up at 11am
March On 11.30am
Parade and Speeches approx 1 hour
March Off and Salute 12.45pm approx.
Mount Buses for Richmond 13.00
March Off in Richmond at 13.30pm
Short march round Richmond Town
Short service at Cenotaph
March Off and Salute.
Lunch will be a Hot & Cold Buffet provided in the Civil Service club
after the Richmond Parade (We have the full use of the Civil Service
club for the whole day) Bars will be open after the parade.
After Lunch we will be entertained by the Brewery Boys. and later in
the evening there will be a Disco with Irish Stew.
Tickets for the whole day including all food and entertainment will be
�12.00 and are available from Joe Mills of the Yorkshire Branch,
Mobile 07736 383276 after 6PM as he works during the day.
Now everything is down to you to make the day a resounding success, I
ask all who are able to please attend, as this will probably be the
last major Rangers event, as most of us are not getting any
younger.
And the lads of the Yorkshire Branch have worked very hard for all our
benefits and deserve our full support, as there were no 40th
Celebrations available elsewhere at the time.

Just want to add what Jed has already said about WATCH WHAT WE SAY!,
if like me you use this site to keep in touch etc and find out dates
meeting's etc SO DO THEY!. Not only is it the old Enemy ! but
the mad men that are blowing things up now day's for a new
CAUSE!! .One RMP friend i showed the web site to could not believe how
much private info was on it for the whole world to see!!!. Iam as bad
as the next man for it at times. We have alway's been on our
guard in the past let's not drop it now just because our enemy
now lives in Iraq and Aghan.. That said would you want to cause damage
or harm to a group of old school IRISH RANGERS! who have been on the
beer all day, who have not let of steam for many a year and who are
hell bent on making this afternoon JUST LIKE THE OLD DAY'S!
never mind the enemy some of our friend's frighten me after 20
pint's and the rest.
