Cavalry Memorial Service Podcast

Due to the cancellation of the parade, HQ RAC have put together a Podcast version of the Cavalry Memorial Service together with an e-Order of Service for Sunday 3rd May 2020.

The link to the Podcast is as follows: https://youtu.be/7zFBuarqXbE

The idea is for people to follow the link from 1055hrs with the Service starting at 1100hrs. (Noting that, although it will be bespoke, it will be pre-recorded so timing isn’t critical!). 

The e-Order of Service for people to follow can be found below:

From the President of the Combined Cavalry Old Comrades Association:

“As you will all be aware, given current restrictions on movement and gatherings, it has not been possible to hold the Combined Cavalry Old Comrades Association’s normal Parade and Service on the Anniversary of the Unveiling and Dedication of the Cavalry Memorial. This electronic version of the Service is presented in the hope that you may wish ‘virtually’ to join together in memory of our comrades in the Cavalry who have given their lives in the service of their Country. The recording will be live from 1055 with incidental music. The actual Service will begin at 11 AM”.

Lieutenant-General Sir William Rollo KCB, CBE
