1322 (Newton Abbot) Squadron

Air Training Corps

VE & VJ Celebrations 2005

Members of 1322, as Honorary Citizens of Newton Abbot, supported Newton Abbot Town Council, during the official events to mark the 60th anniversary of  the end of the Second World War. 
This page records some of the aspects of the day - naturally during the busy times, when we were on parade and during the service it's not convenient or appropriate to use cameras.
Commemoration took the form of a wreath laying service at the War Memorial followed by a short service around the Bandstand organised by Newton Abbot British Legion whom 1322 are Affiliated with.
Pictures shows CWO Lindsey Sayers with our Squadron Banner.
Various stalls and displays provided by local charities and organisations were set up around the park.
Naturally 1322 were represented - Thanks to the hard work of the Friends Of 1322 organised by Karen Avery & Marion Sayers
Pictures show 1322 area - during the set up stage & later chilling out enjoying the day.
Celebrations centred on the Band Concert in Courtenay Park with a sing along and flag waving session.
As always 1322 cadets worked hard and had fun.
Pictures show 1322 posed for the picture with flags & a general picture of the park during the day.
