A REUNION dinner dance of the Kings Own Royal Regiment will be held at the Winter Gardens, Blackpool, on March 16, 2002.

I am confident that this is of great interest to many local people who are service veterans of the Kings Own Royal Regiment.

With 320 guests at the first reunion earlier this year the event was a huge success.

The dinner, band, hotels and the classic location venue provided a night to remember and most importantly, gave a basis for reunions of old friends and colleagues who served together between 1930 and 1959.

The guests included many ex-national servicemen along with regulars who served in WW2, East Africa, Trieste, Germany, Korea, Hong Kong, Kenya, Aden and the Persian Gulf.

Seating was organised to ensure that virtually all those attending were amongst known comrades from over forty years ago.
