This year the squadron took part in two remembrance services.

On Sunday 10th of November the Squadron joined the ranks of veterans from the Royal British Legion and other ex-service organisations on parade at the Nuneaton War Memorial in Riversley Park.

A large crowd stood in silent remembrance as the standards were dipped in salute as the bugler sounded the Last Post. An armed cadet honour guard formed by cadets from all three services and commanded by CPO Paul Kitchen, stood vigil at the War memorial during the wreath laying ceremony, which was led by the Mayor of Nuneaton and Bedworth and other civic leaders, service representatives and members of ex-service organisations.

Following the service the parade led by the band of 121 Squadron formed up for the march past, along Coton Road and past the saluting base at the Council House. The armed cadet honour guard, bayonets attached, formed an escort to the standards of the Royal British Legion and other ex-service organisations.

On Monday 11th of November the Squadron attended the Armistice Day service and parade in Bedworth. This parade is unique because the local branch of the Royal British Legion has stuck rigidly to the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month to honour the war dead every year, since the end of the First World War. Many hundreds of veterans from all over the country return to Bedworth every year to remember their comrades and meet up with many old ex-service pals.

During the march past the band of 121 Squadron had the honour of leading the cadet contingent of the parade through the streets of Bedworth.

In the past, most people have associated Remembrance Day as a time to remember those who had given their lives during the two World Wars. In particular In recent years the large contingents of World War II veterans attending both the Nuneaton and Bedworth services, have been swelled by servicemen and women who served in other conflicts. Since the end of the Second Word War the British forces have been in action in many conflicts such as Malaya, Korea, Northern Ireland, the Falklands, the Gulf War, Bosnia, and more recently, Afghanistan. At a time when thousands of our forces are preparing for possible conflict in Iraq, Remembrance day has an even deeper meaning for the Squadron as we pray for the safety of many of our former cadets who are currently serving in the armed forces.
