" all 3 services " ........... ??

I can think of 7 at least......which ones are NOT invited? and why?

good plug for the beer tho!

I'm asked to inform you that ALL services will be welcome ,

Would suggest you link up with Australian Veterans affairs too, in our experience as british veterans, linking up with them provides more information and support, and they tend to get things done for you a lot quicker, Nignoy

Can I become a remote member as I live near Khampaeng Phet in the central region.

I was in the RAF, boy and man from 1960 to 1984.

Cheers
