Story
Over the past three years myself and a group of serving soldiers and colleagues have taken part in charity walks to help support and raise the profile of Combat Stress. Due to the success of these walks we are continuing with our endeavors and traveling to France to walk 20 miles over two days, dressed in authentic period uniforms.
Our chosen charity this year is the 'The Not Forgotten Association', 2010 is the charities 90th Anniversary.
This walk is being supported by;
