Including this incredible 1:32 Bolton Paul Defiant of 307 Squadron with a 1:48 de Havilland Tiger Moth in a beautiful training scheme as well as a Supermarine Spitfire from 318 βGdanskiβ Squadron. A fascinating Spitfire from the Italian theatre.

The final leg of the March will be an Amphibious crossing via the Point Clear Ferry. Secure Brightlingsea and advance on The Yachtsmanβs Arms. ETA 1700 hrs.
Final Objective:
Establish the Regimental Mess at the Raj Massala for curry, cold beer and robust discussion on how the Essex Yeomanry kept the Sherwood Rangers out of trouble all the way from the Western Desert to Berlinβ¦ or so the Essex contingent will insist! ππΊβοΈ
Iβm sure @James1940 will have something to say on this π
