Sunday 8th November 2026 Service of Remembrance

Our sincere thanks to all those who attended our short service at the New Forest Airfields Memorial in Bransgore this morning. As usual, we were supported by bikers from across Hampshire and Dorset, with a record 80 bikes attending this year. In addition, we had a couple of army trucks and 2 vintage tractors joining us. It is gratifying to see that, despite WWII fading further into the past, we seem to have ever more people supporting us at both this and our September memorial events. Today’s service was particularly atmospheric in the mist, with the 2 minutes silence allowing us to hear birdsong in the trees and the ponies in the fields behind us – a reminder of the peace our ancestors fought to give us. We will remember them!
