On Sunday 19th May Redline Home Guard sent a patrol of OX5 Guards to attend Fawley Hill Steam and Vintage Transport Festival. Platoon orders were to provide a roaming patrol of the site to deter infiltration from the Hun and their supporters, whilst the warm weather required special attention to be paid to maintain the integrity of the beer tent…
After being somewhat confused by the local road signs, we sought out some transportation. The train station was patrolled to check for infiltrators, however after waiting around for the train we found some alternative transport to ferry us around the site.
Further patrols around the site followed on what turned out to be another fabulous event at Fawley Hill – many thanks to Lady Judy for having us along to your party in the sun. Taking part in the arena parade of military vehicles whilst watching in the sky a dogfight between WW1 biplanes was a memorable experience.
