Hi Guys, we had a fantastic show. As you can see, the weather was good and we got rather sunburnt on Saturday!
I met up with forum member Glenn. Great to meet up and Glenn will have a pic to show of us.
Had a friend, Mikhail, over from Moscow to join us and plus three guests from the Russian Embassy and our friend Viktor who owns "World of Tanks" PC game.
We had a big surprise and all of our group who travelled to Moscow for Victory Day were presented with the 70th Anniversary Medals! This was to honour our work in keeping the memory of Veterans alive and for promoting friendship between our countries. We were truly gobsmacked! I will photo the medal and citation later. We were also given commemorative medals for our trip to Torgau in April.
Mikhail has invited our group to Moscow in August for a big event.
We presented Viktor with a copy of a film about our group, called Red Division. Not had chance to tell you all about this yet! It has already won one award at a film festival in Russia.
So busy and exciting times for us!
Cheers, Ade.

Thanks guys for the kind comments.
It is a super show and worth the 4.5 hour drive for us.
Cheers, Ade.
