MINSTER MEMORIAL FOR THE RIFLES

27 October 2021

  • Yorkshire (North And West) ACF
The E(The Rifles) Company contingent which included members of Minden Band and Bugles, attended The Rifles, Light Infantry and King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry (KOYLI) Annual Memorial Service at the Minster and joined the other participants at a lunch afterwards at York Racecourse.


SSI Tracy Morris, Commander of Wakefield Detachment, described the event as both moving and memorable:
"It was a great honour to be invited to such a prestigious event. We are all part of the Rifles family, and it was both a moving and memorable occasion to be involved in."

Well done to everyone from Yorkshire (N&W) ACF who took part!
